Wine Estate

Our Story

Our estate began in the early 2000s when Daria first discovered Castiglione della Pescaia as a simple tourist. Captivated by the rugged and unspoiled beauty of the area, she chose Val del Melo as her new home, with an ambitious goal: to reclaim a nearly barren land and create a new farm.

When Daria visited Castiglione della Pescaia in the early 2000s, she was immediately captivated. The rugged, unspoiled beauty of its countryside convinced her to move to Val del Melo with an ambitious goal: to reclaim an almost barren land and create her own farm.

Farming at Val del Melo

When we arrived at Val del Melo, we restored the existing vineyards, planted new fruit trees, and added over a thousand olive trees, from which we produce our IGT Extra Virgin Olive Oil, “Un posto tranquillo.” Daily monitoring of the vines and manual harvesting allow us to create unique wines that tell the story of a land that is alive, wild, and full of surprises.
