Embark on a captivating journey through our elegant château and its surrounding vineyards, uncovering the rich history and meticulous craftsmanship behind our exceptional wines. Explore our cellar, witnessing firsthand the artistry of winemaking, from vine to glass. Our knowledgeable family guides will lead you on a tasting adventure, featuring four exquisite wines crafted from Merlot, Pinot Noir, and other native grapes cultivated on our estate: * **Spinorosso IGT Toscana Rosso:** A tribute to the legacy of the Malaspina Marquises, this wine embodies its medieval heritage. Made from meticulously selected grapes, it showcases the natural beauty of our vineyards, offering a structured, fresh, and elegant profile with minimal sulfites. * **Fedespina IGT Toscana Rosso:** Named for a courageous ancestor who protected the Marquises, this wine reflects our unwavering commitment to tradition and quality. Harvested from fifty-year-old vines, Fedespina delivers a vibrant expression of our terroir, revealing subtle nuances and a distinct character. * **Ca' IGT Toscana Rosso:** Representing the pinnacle of our region's expression, Ca' (meaning "home") symbolizes our deep connection to the land. Hand-selected grapes, vinified according to soil variations, create a pure Merlot that captures the unique microclimate and terrain of our vineyards. * **Bianco Fedespina IGT Toscana:** From nearly fifty-year-old vines, this blend of Vermentino, Durella, and Chardonnay grapes embodies the luminous purity of our terroir. The low-yield vines produce a wine with subtle yet distinctive characteristics, reflecting its strong identity. In our cellar, we maintain the same respectful practices as in the vineyards. Grapes are gently de-stemmed and crushed, preserving a portion of whole grapes for fermentation in cement barrels. This method ensures a delicate and consistent fermentation, followed by natural malolactic fermentation and aging in carefully selected French oak barrels. Enhance your tasting experience by pairing our wines with local delicacies, including artisanal cheeses and savory ham, perfectly complementing the rich flavors of our selections. Each wine tells a story—a testament to our dedication to natural winemaking, environmental stewardship, and the unique bond between vine, artisan, and land. Indulge in this unforgettable experience, where every sip reflects the passion and care poured into crafting our wines. Perfect for couples, families, and friends seeking an authentic boutique winery experience.
