Tenuta Villa Trasqua

Cantina e Vini

Villa Trasqua is not merely a wine, but a experience that takes root in the heart of Tuscany. Its proximity to the confines of the Chianti Classico, has enabled the Estate to unite the traditions of this ancient territory with the innovation of a more worldly outlook since more than fifty years. Following organic methods of production, from the grape-growing to the vinification process, was the challenge posed and won by Hans Hulsbergen who, from 2001 until today, has transformed Villa Trasqua from an ambitious project to a solid reality. With experience and respect for people’s bond to the land, with care for the vines that are cultivated organically, Villa Trasqua is committed to constantly find the balance between established flavours and innovative palates, between tradition and modernity, to give added value to a far-reaching history like the one on which the Chianti Classico is founded.

Our estate is 120h, including vineyards, olives groves and forests in an ancient land with characteristics and peculiarities typical of Chianti Classico. The wildlife of the natural reserve of the estate allows the cultivation in a completely natural habit, cared for and preserved according to the best definition of sustainability. The vineyards face south/south-east in a position that provides good ventilation and the natural draining of rainwater, which avoids erosion. “The soils are the raw material of grape growers” says the winemaker Bernabei when describing the beginning of a long and high-quality process which starts on the land and ends in the bottle.
