Wines of Vallocaia

We have been winegrowers for more than 50 years, by vocation and by passion. Initially in Western Switzerland, since 1983 in Tuscany. From our business partnership with historical Italian Vigneron we have learned that only our viticulture can give us a complete vision on wine.

The aim is to obtain wines with character, with a strong territorial identity, expressing and enhancing the terroir and the vintages, through manual harvests diversified by vineyard, with even several harvests per parcel, and separate vinification.
