TENUTA FERTUNA - Maremma (Tuscany)

Tenuta Fertuna is located in the heart of the magnificent Maremma, an area that is fast becoming known for its high-quality wines, a chic but discreet Tuscan sub-region to the west near the coast, sandwiched between Grosseto and Livorno. The estate covers 145 hectares, of which 45  are currently vineyards and 10 are olive groves. 

Grape varietis cultivated here are the indigenous Sangiovese and Vermentino, together with the more international styled Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The name “Fertuna” refers to the fertility of the land and the fortune of those who cultivate it, creating excellent wines in a place where nature dominates. 

SUSTAINABILITY is a key term;  in 2022 Tenuta Fertuna became a Sustainable Winery certified at European level by Equalitas. Organic fertilizers are used in the vineyards to support the soil’s natural fertility, with the promotion of indigenous entomofauna and natural predators for pest control, and a water management systems that see rainwater collected for the cleaning of non- alimentary surfaces. 

GUALDO DEL RE - Suvereto (Tuscany) 

Gualdo del Re firmly believes in the expression of terroir in its wines. Varietal expression is combined with the winemaker's ability to draw a consistent narration that embodies the winery's identity.

Gualdo del Re cultivates about 27 hectares of vineyards in Notri, just south of the historic town of Suvereto, where the Cornia River glides between the first ridges of the Metalliferous hills, giving rise to the homonymous valley (Val di Cornia).

A single unit of vineyards that, following soil analysis and attentive agronomic choices, has been divided into two distinct areas dedicated to red and white grape varieties, respectively.

The southern part of the vineyards, the one overlooking the river, is made up of light and loose soils of alluvial origin. This area is dedicated to the cultivation of white grapes – Vermentino and Pinot Bianco – which are characterized by freshness, intense aromas and exceptional complexity.

The northern section, at the foot of the Metalliferous hills, has typical reddish soils that contain stone, clay and silt. These are ideal soils for the cultivation of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot, which acquire a particularly noble and fascinating character, thanks to the unique aromas and structure.
