When the Conti Reggiannini family
purchased the estate in 1975, they decided, against the advice of
many neighbors, to plant vines in an area that, at the time, was
believed to be unfit for viticulture. Time though, has proven them
right. In fact, the area around Massa
Marittima was later recognized as a promising wine zone and, in 1994
it became the heart of the 'Monteregio di Massa Marittima' DOC zone.The estate is currently managed by
Claudia Reggiannini, the owner-viticulturist daughter of the
founders. Under her direction, quality wines, strongly affected by
the territory and expressing the full characteristics of the
Monteregio di Massa Marittima DOC, are produced.In an area of 10 hectares, in addition
to growing traditional Tuscan vines, such as Sangiovese, Trebbiano,
Malvasia and Vermentino, there are Cabernet Franc and Chardonnay
vines as well.The grapes, all of them coming from the
family vineyards, are carefully selected at harvest time and made
into wine in the modern estate winery.Five different Monteregio di Massa
Marittima DOC wines are the result: apart from the Laran (red wine),
the Morello (red wine) and the Venelle (white wine), two other wines
are made from selected grapes when the harvest is particularly good.These are the Thesan Riserva, a great,
elegant and harmonious red wine, with noteworthy persistence, and
Aurora, a fine, delicate, high quality white wine.The product line is rounded out by two
varieties of Grappa di Monteregio: white and riserva, as well as the
minimum, but truly high quality, fragrant and fruity extra virgin
olive oil.
