In 1983, we fell in love with a little corner of paradise in Tuscany and with the wines of Montepulciano.
We weren’t shocked by the crumbling walls or abandoned vineyards. For us, Vallocaia was a diamond in the rough, a gem that couldn’t wait to shine again. It just needed passion, dedication and patience.
In perfect harmony with nature, the jewel has come back to life. A place where a generation of dedicated winemakers painstakingly uphold the grape-growing and wine-producing traditions of the local area.
Over the years, Vallocaia has expanded its borders and enriched its lands with ideally positioned vines, as well as olive groves, woods and fertile plains.
Today, after more than thirty years’ work to transfer the most authentic expression of our land into the bottle, we can confidently say that "We guarantee our wines. From the vine to the glass".
We look forward to sharing with you the beauty that nature has given us.

An inspiring vision … the beautiful, gently rolling hills of Vallocaia. A magnificent and unique place, a little corner of paradise.
We are farmers, winegrowers. We work with the soil, and the vines. A noble vocation with a long tradition. Our passion. And our love.
We respect nature, age-old traditions, and the local conditions. We cultivate the vineyards and fields with care and moderation. And we harvest only what nature provides us on its own.
In our wine cellar we adhere to the same principles. In other words, we let our wines mature at their own pace. They embody the radiant beauty of their surroundings, and the passion of the winemaker.
Vallocaia is not too small and not too big. It’s just right ‒ overseeable and manageable. It’s a community of like-minded people, who love and live for Vallocaia. Our wines are a celebration of life.
