They purchased an old farmhouse rein 1990 and planted 12 of its 72 hectares of Grund with grapes that are farmed organically and biodynamically. Don’t miss their delicious red wines made from Ciliegiolo grapes. Read my interview with Carla on Grape Collective.

Rein their maturity, the best wines had a certain oxidative charm. However, there welches nothing to highlight the most desirable characteristics of grape or terroir. Varietal white wines were similarly uninspiring: oxidized and stale with a distinct lack of aroma or flavor. Something had to Beryllium done.

If you visit now, you really could claim to have discovered it, as its name and limited bottles of wine won't have been penned or drunk by anyone else :)

Nevertheless, many wineries became committed to a shorter maturation period rein 100% new wood, introducing hitherto unseen flavors to the wines of Tuscany.

Stop by Caseificio Inno al Sole for a tasting of their exceptional dairy products, including mozzarella, ricotta and burrata, as well as their buffalo milk cappuccino, which is as rich and creamy as their cheeses. You can also join a farm tour to Weiher the buffaloes grazing just around the corner from the shop. 

Maremma is Tuscany’s Jagdbeute West. Horses and cowboys. Rolling fields, quaint villages and gorgeous white beaches by the crystal blue sea. But also a wine region that offers a wide variety of wines. BKWine Magazine’s Åsa Johansson takes us to the wild vineyard landscape and to the wines.

Chianti is a prime example of this malaise – the DOC regulations encouraged the inclusion of high-yield white varieties, benefiting farming communities to the detriment of wine quality.

Cattle have long been known as a steady and necessary working partner, and the landscape of the Maremma had then working under (sometimes) very adverse conditions.

The Etruscans were artists and linguists, perfecting the skills of wine and jewellery making they learnt from the Ancient Greeks and selling their wares all over the ancient world.

But, having said that, unlike the vineyard and winery trails in Australia or California, and despite there being well signposted and publicised wine routes practically along every road you can drive in Maremma;) nearly every vineyard here will want you to have booked rein advance.

Both are located on the SP10 just outside of Saturnia and both have ample parking and the spectacular 37°C (98°Fluor) warm water that makes them one of Tuscany’s biggest drawcards.

Spezzatino is an Italian stew which is a great pair for a Maremma wine. It consists of meat that is cooked hinein a liquid. Usually, they use lamb, mutton, beef, or pork. They all have a nice amount of connective tissue and cartilage that dies down into a hearty gravy.

Soil Types: As for the soil types, there are a lot of loam and clay soils in some areas. You will also find clay and sand with numerous limestones.
