Wine Shop: SìLa passione per la Terra, per il buon Vino e per l’Olio di Oliva spinse nel 1935 i Fratelli Carlo ed Alberto Galardi, discendenti da una famiglia di commercianti fiorentini, ad acquistare la Tenuta di Poggiopiano. Questo ha segnato una svolta nella storia della Famiglia, che si è da allora dedicata quasi completamente alla produzione di Olio e Vino ed alla costruzione, dapprima per passione, poi anche quale vera e propria attività industriale, di attrezzature meccaniche da utilizzare in agricoltura: molini per i cereali, frangitori per le olive e impianti per la pressatura delle uve e per l’estrazione dell’olio. Nel 1985 Mauro Galardi, poco più che ventenne, con la stessa determinazione dei suoi predecessori, mette a frutto per la sua professione la sua personale passione per il Vino e per l’Olio, studiando da autodidatta agronomia ed enologia. Mauro ancora oggi, insieme a sua figlia Martina, tiene a raccontare la conduzione familiare, la voglia di fare e riuscire a costruire, l’impegno nel mantenere le tradizioni pur tenendo nella giusta considerazione tutti quei miglioramenti legati al progresso in campo enologico ed elaiotecnico. Il suo progetto è rendere partecipi gli altri della sua passione: la terra ed i suoi frutti, il Vino e l’Olio; far gioire, chi lo desidera, della tranquillità e della serenità della campagna. La stessa convinzione dei suoi predecessori guida Mauro in questo progetto: la ricerca della qualità. I vigneti e gli oliveti si estendono per circa 17 ettari, ad un’altitudine di circa 150 metri slm, su un terreno magro, galestroso e calcareo, che contribuisce a mantenere produttività limitate quantitativamente, ma qualitativamente importanti. La loro totale esposizione a solatio determina un microclima particolarmente favorevole. Dal punto di vista fito-sanitario, l’assenza di ristagno di umidità minimizza gli attacchi parassitari con conseguente possibilità di conduzione agronomica a basso impatto ambientale, secondo le normative dell’Agricoltura Biologica, che seguiamo da oramai più di 20 anni. Anche in cantina, grazie all’utilizzo di fonti rinnovabili di energia e alle attenzioni ai materiali del packaging, l’impatto ambientale è ridotto al minimo. Mauro: “Il vino prima di tutto deve essere buono, se è buono e bio è ancora meglio!”

Tasting room: SìWine Shop: SìGlad to be part of this area, Terre di Pisa, we will tell you something about us and our history. We are in Montopoli Val d’Arno municipality, the estate covers a surface of 390ha, 8ha of this are vineyards, 200ha of forest, 70ha of arable land, 70ha of poplar plantation, 10ha of reforestation essences, the rest is divided between gardens, meadows and pastures. Already ih the XIIIth Century Varramista is in some historical books, where it was called “vera mistra” or Vara Mistra” (Valle Ramista or Valle Frammista) for the surrounding forest variety. Since 1406 property of the noble Florentine Capponi family. The construction of the main Villa, that stands at the centre of the property on a soft hill, dates back to 1598. Bartolomeo Ammannati and Bernardo Buontalenti seem to have contributed to the Villa and Italianate Graden project, for the presence of some architectural elements related to them. The Capponi family owns the estate for a long time, using the Villa as a summer residence. At the beginning of the 1950s Enrico Piaggio bought it, when he sterted to relaunch the Piaggio in Pontedera with the invention of the Vespa mop. The end of the 80s is a crucial moment for the revival of the wine production and the developmente of tourism. Giovanni alberto Agnelli, grandson of Enrico Piaggio, with the help of Federico Staderini, who still collaborates with us and is the mind of our wines, decides to plant Syrah grape or we should better say that we regrafted Syrah on a 1972 vineyard of Chianti. Syrah is added to Sangiovese and Merlot, already present in our vineyards and from that moment is starts a new adventure that leads us to produce today 3 wines: Varramista (3.000 bottles), Frasca (7.000 bottles), Sterpato (15.000-25.000 bottles). The production is between 35.000 and 45.000 bottle per year, depending on the climatic condition. Between the end oth 90s and the beginning of the 2000s 5ha of vineyard are added. They are in the other family business estate in Capalbio, in the Maremma shire. There we grom Sangiovese, Syrah, Merlot, Petiti Verdot, cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache and Vermentino. Hand harvest, production selection in the vineyard and the journey of the grape begins, passing through the modern cellar, the historic cellar, also called “vinaia” as reported in the texts of XVth century and ends in the bottle ageing warehouse. It ends just in part! The work is not finished yet, you have to be patient and wait the best moment to bring out the wines to the market. The organic certification arrived in 2021. Giovanni Alberto Agnelli loved Syrah and we wanted to give new life to the farms inside the property and during 10 years 3 of them have been renovated. Today we have 12 self catering apartments, 3 swimming pools and various amenities for those who wish to relax in the sun and peace of the Terre di Pisa.

Tasting room: Non DichiaratoWine Shop: SìThe Vallocaia Estate has special character. A place where wine, art, history, passion and people live in a dynamic equilibrium, dedicated to creating wines that are the best way to tell the tales of this land in the heart of Tuscany. At the Vallocaia Estate, one breathes the energy of the future, in a land that still resonates with the scent of the Renaissance, of Humanism and of beauty. Here, one experiments, one speaks with the land to understand its character and transfer it to its Sangiovese, in order to project it towards a modern, sophisticated and more elegant Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. The new cellar was imagined as a place that is, at the same time, home and workshop, a parlour and place of enological and gastronomic sharing. A place respectful of the landscape but effective and functional nonetheless and a place, above all, that is able to narrate a vision projected in time and one which dialogues with future generations. We conceived this place with the idea of it becoming a destination, a place which could bring in new visitors, to get to know the world of wine more intimately, immersing them in a place of beauty. “We guarantee our wines from the vines to the glass”. ph: @alessandromoggi How to get From the South – A1 Chiusi Chianciano terme exit: At the exit turn right towards Chiusi.
