Winemaking

Each grape variety is processed and vinified individually. The grapes are hand-picked at the peak of their phenolic ripeness. After gentle fermentation in stainless steel tanks, 10 months of ageing takes place, mainly in cement tanks.

Our tasting note

The Querciabella Mongrana is the Maremma project of Querciabella. This pleasing red wine cuvée, consisting of 50% Sangiovese, 25% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, is an intensive ruby red in the glass. The delicate aroma of red fruits, combined with leather and tobacco aromas. Lively on the palate, with dark fruity aromas of black cherry and redcurrants. Soft tannins and stimulating acidity. Smooth and clean aftertaste. A great everyday wine.

Querciabella

Querciabella is one of the most respected wine producers in Tuscany, situated in the heart of the Chianti Classico zone in the municipality of Greve, south of Florence. Founded in 1974 by Giuseppe Castiglioni, the estate is now under the stewardship of his daughter, Mita Castiglioni, who continues the family’s legacy with a renewed vision for the future. With over 50 hectares of organic vineyards in Chianti Classico, including new holdings in Lamole acquired in 2020, and an expanded 41-hectare coastal estate in Maremma, Querciabella remains dedicated to crafting wines of exceptional quality. A new state-of-the-art winery is currently under construction in Greve, reinforcing the estate’s commitment to sustainability, innovation, and excellence. Querciabella’s philosophy is deeply rooted in land stewardship and responsible governance, values now enriched by the leadership of Mita and her children, Andrea and Selene. While the estate’s wines continue to be certified organic and vegan, its approach has evolved to emphasize community engagement, transparency, and environmental responsibility. Inspired by biodynamic principles but not bound by certification, Querciabella focuses on producing wines that express the purity and character of their terroir, while embracing a forward-thinking, sustainable future.
