Maremma is a unique land, and we at Querciabella deeply appreciate its distinctive value. Our newest vineyard, Vallemaggiore, is poised to expand our footprint in the region while continuing to pioneer new winemaking techniques.
It’s always exciting when the wine world witnesses the rise of a new region. With many winemakers tapping into its enormous viticultural potential, Maremma has a real buzz. This territory has been thriving with life and trade since the Etruscan and ancient Roman times. And wine always played a large part in luring enthusiasts to its shores.
Querciabella arrived in Alberese, Grosseto, in the late 90s. Here, we trialled biodynamic viticulture before evolving our own plant-based system, working with a range of international grape varieties yielding traditional and innovative styles. Our breakthrough in Maremma came in 2005 with Mongrana Rosso, a deceptively simple expression of Sangiovese, Cabernet and Merlot, followed a few years later by Turpino, our barrel-aged, Super Coastal wine, sumptuously rich and spicy.
Finally, in 2020, enamoured with the intensity of flavours and that subtle hint of saline minerality that characterises the region’s white grapes, we created Mongrana Bianco. This Vermentino-based wine mirrors the defining traits of its red siblings and perfectly illustrates the qualities we seek from the Maremma: restrained power, coastal freshness and the purity of fruit which is our hallmark.
No animal products or byproducts are used in the production of this wine, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
