Chi Siamo
VALDICAVA
GENIUS LOCI
Here in Montalcino the opulence of the Sangiovese grape, more than any other place in Tuscany, has lead to a darker, deeper, and more concentrated wine. At our precise latitude of 43 degrees, the warmth of the nearby Tirreno Sea, the protective barrier of the "Monte Amiata", the coolness of the wooded areas, the breeze and moderate rainfall all coincide to facilitate the growth of these grapes to fragrant, full maturity. Valdicava is located in the Montosoli area which is famous in Montalcino for creating wines with great balance of body and aromas. We pay the utmost attention towards maintaining the individual characteristics of our wines in order to exalt the spirit of the place, the 'genius loci' of our estate.

VALDICAVA
DICONO DI NOI
"There is something almost mystical about the Brunello di Montalcino from the wonderful estate of Valdicava. The mystique must emanate from the sublime vineyards on the north side of Montalcino, which produce arguably the most exquisite grapes. And, of course, the guru- like dedication of the owner Vincenzo Abbruzzese has also contributed to the craft of these lovely Tuscan sangiovese." (James Suckling)
"Since its foundation, Valdicava has been a family property. Their wine is born in the vineyard, where every day they work respecting the balance of Nature so as to exalt the individual character of their Sangiovese. 50 years of genuine methods and coherent philosophy allow them to produce small quantities of grapes in the natural way, preserving th equilibrium of the vines. Extreme attention during harvest, native yeasts, controlled temperature, maniacal cleanliness and a lot of experience give them the opportunity to produce a unique Brunello with a special character impossible to replicate elsewhere." (Wine Spectator)
