Val delle Rose
A profound knowledge and passion for Sangiovese are at the origin of Val delle Rose
in Maremma in the heart of the Morellino di Scansano production zone.
At the time of the purchase, Val delle Rose owned 25 hectares of vineyards.
The intervention can be compared to a small agricultural revolution as the agronomic techniques used until then did not guarantee the consistent quality necessary for the
survival of a winery.
The study of the available soils, a practice subsequently conducted by many other
Maremma estates, revealed the enormous potential of this terroir, so much so that the company decided to extend the vineyards to the current 100 hectares, where Sangiovese
is the protagonist.
Toscana
The name of Tuscany is synonymous with its most famous, and probably Italy’s most famous, red wine. Chianti is produced in high volumes and exported worldwide, with a distinctive personality that is difficult to define but that has somehow impressed consumers all over the world. The Sangiovese grape is the key to the region’s success, as the backbone of DOCG wines in Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and Carmignano. Yet the region’s prestige is today further enhanced by the evolution of the “Super Tuscan”, wines that now rank among some of Italy’s most refined. Failing to slot into any existing DOC or DOCG category, they are now largely classed as Toscana IGT in order to avoid the humble Vino da Tavola category.
