Winery Overview
Malgiacca is situated in the province of Lucca, a relatively unknown but lovely part of Tuscany nor far from the sea. We are wine growers, custodians of the land where we live. We have started to revitalise old vineyards, some of which had been almost abandoned, as we strongly believe not just in their cultural value, but also the importance of preserving them and using them to make great wine. Traditional growers believed in multi-variety planting and our wine in the glass is a reflection of the terroir’s rich history and bio diversity.
The hill on which it rests is exposed to the South-West, 180 meters above sea level, 3500 plants per hectare.
Viticulture
The vines are about 45 years old and we have Trebbiano, Vermentino, Malvasia and a good 15% of Colombana (otherwise known as Verdea), a grape with an intense flavor that due to the loose character of the bunch and the resistant skin was also used for drying. We have added a little Viognier to soften the primordial strength of the varieties present The vines are very vigorous and only with biodynamic preparations can we transform this vigor into strength (thanks to the 500) and strength into expressiveness (thanks to the 501). Through Biodynamics we are able to channel the primitive strength of Tingolli into an intense, floral and austere wine.
Vinification
One third of the grapes undergoes a short maceration, not much, about a fortnight, another third, in anfora macerate for 2 months, the rest in wood is pressed whole bunch. In June we blend the 3 third, bottle it and mature it until next year.
