Region

Toskana

The Tuscany is probably Italy’s most reputed winegrowing area alongside Piedmont. Long before the Roman era, the Etruscans had already begun to cultivate vines in Tuscany. Hence the region is also one of Europe’s oldest vine cultivation areas. The world-renowned Chianti and Brunello are Tuscany’s most celebrated wines, and rightly so. Tuscany is also Italy’s largest premium-range wine producer overall. Spoilt by plenty of sunlight, cooled by strong sea breezes and enjoying abundant rains, while nourished on soils imbued with chalk, limestone and sandstone, and various combinations thereof, Tuscan vines produce wines of outstanding quality – acclaimed by wine-lovers across the world.

Producer/Brand

Castello di Volpaia

In the small village of Volpaia on the border between the provinces of Siena and Florence, wine was already cultivated in the 12th century. The village, considered one of the best preserved medieval villages, is distinguished by its wine culture. Since 1967, the Stianti Mascheroni family has been producing elegant, smooth wines with great commitment and profound expertise – today using modern-day organic methods. The vineyards belonging to the Castello di Volpaia are located at 450 to 600 metres above sea level, making Volpaia one of the highest-located vineyards in the Chianti region. So high that the vineyards lie above the fog and frost of spring and autumn.
