The company is young, curious, dynamic and the range of wines produced is wide and eclectic. Podere Pellicciano means: Organic farming, native Tuscan vines and rediscovery of local varieties such as Malvasia Nera, mono-varietal oriented.
Terroir
Few places in Tuscany have become famous for products not only for the wine, and one of these is San Miniato, close to Pisa, known, like Langhe area, for its precious White Truffle.
Despite it all, the vines have always been at their homeland since the ancient times, widespread on the rolling hills which surround the country. San Miniato was born as an Etruscan settlement, and it is precisely here that the “wine strainer” symbol of Podere Pellicciano was found, to recall the history and winemaking tradition of the area. San Miniato is an ancient territory, crossed by several rivers, it is a continuous alternation of clays, marine fossils and layers of white tuff. Its valley conveys the winds that come from the sea, refreshing the grapes and creating an ideal microclimate. Thanks to its conformation, the San Miniato area manages to be strongly suited for quality viticulture, for great red wines and fine white grape varieties.
Family
Podere Pellicciano is an historic farm,known since 1830, but it is only since 2003 that the Caputo family has decided to devote itself to its rebirth. A close-knit family and largely dedicated to the company: Concetta, the mother, takes care of the visits to the winery, Fabio manages all the commercial activity and finally Federico, the winemaker, who devotes all his attention to production.
Winery
The varieties we grow are the historical ones of our old vineyards, which after a careful massal selection have been spreaded and also inserted in the new vineyard. Sangiovese, Malvasia Nera, Colorino and Canaiolo for the red varieties and Trebbiano, Malvasia Bianca, San Colombano and Vermentino for the white grapes. We spend most of our time working in the vineyard, because it is only thanks to careful management of the vineyards we are able to produce the best grapes. With the harvest, the vinification stage starts, which is the process where our wines born. Finally, with the storage, we accompany them until bottling. All process is carried out and managed directly within our farm, only in this way are we able to keep the supply chain intact for a quality production.
