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.
Maremma has a real buzz. Its rugged coastal landscape and wild nature have thrived with life and trade, with wine always playing a central role since Etruscan and Roman times. With its diverse terroir, Maremma is attracting winemakers eager to experiment and push boundaries, unlocking the region’s enormous viticultural potential.
Querciabella arrived in Alberese, Grosseto, in the late 90s. Here, we trialled biodynamic viticulture before evolving our plant-based system, working with a range of grape varieties to produce both traditional and innovative styles. Our breakthrough in Maremma came in 2005 with Mongrana Rosso, a vintage-driven blend deceptively simple, followed a few years later by Turpino, our Super Coastal wine—sumptuously rich and spicy.
In 2020, captivated by the intensity of flavours and the subtle hint of saline minerality that characterizes the region’s white grapes, we created Mongrana Bianco. This Vermentino mirrors the defining traits of its red siblings and perfectly embodies the qualities we seek from Maremma: vibrant character, seaside freshness, and the purity of fruit that defines our wines.
Mongrana Bianco offers a complex nose with aromatic hints of citrus, green apple, and wild herbs, while the palate is lively and balanced, with a delicate minerality that lingers. Its bright, crisp character makes it an ideal pairing for Mediterranean cuisine, casual dining, and sunset aperitifs.
