Strengthened by the tradition of an ancient land, lulled by the placid Tuscan wind, this Chianti Classico finds its wise expression in a wine with an intense aroma, slightly spicy and pleasant on the palate. A sustainable label, born from the respect for the exceptional biodiversity of Villa Trasqua through the principles of organic cultivation.
Villa Trasqua is not merely a wine, but an experience that takes root in the heart of Tuscany.Located within the prized Chianti Classico region, Villa Trasqua unites the traditions of this ancient territory with the innovation of a more worldly outlook for more than fifty years.
Following organic methods of production, from the grape-growing to the vinification process, was the challenge posed and won by Hans Hulsbergen who, since 2001, has transformed Villa Trasqua from an ambitious project to an elite winery with a global perspective.
With the arrival of Franco Bernabei, who made the 100pt 2016 Fontodi Flaccianello, Villa Trasqua has thankfully returned to the US with fresh wines and critical praise.
