About Winery and Wines

Ampeleia is a winery in the Upper Maremma region of Tuscany, located in Roccatederighi, a medieval town in the province of Grosseto. It is managed by a group of young people guided by vigneron and company manager Marco Tait, who took the reins when he was just 22. In almost twenty years of activity, we have converted our production first into organic and then into biodynamic. The character of Ampeleia has its roots in Cabernet Franc, the grape variety that best expresses the identity of the terroirs, while at the same time telling its story.

THE WINES

Respect for the purity and integrity of the original berry inspires every choice of Marco Tait, the winemaker. Spontaneous fermentation, no temperature control during alcoholic fermentation, no filtration, nothing added or removed. From the land to the glass, a long-standing experimentation that today has produced a distinctive tasting selection able to surprise you.
