Visit and tastings at Valle Martello
Your host:
1956 It is a family story, like many in Italian viticulture, started by the founder Giuseppe Masci in the post-war years. 1961 È una storia di passione e sacrifici, di mezzadria e di emigrazione, di ritorno e di speranza in un futuro migliore. 1968 In the 1960s, after a period of emigration abroad, Giuseppe's four sons resumed the cultivation of the vine and immediately realized the great vocation of winemaking of their territory in Villamagna. 1979 Da Torre Monache, nucleo originario della tenuta, nel 1979 l'azienda si sposta nella località Valle Martello, da cui eredita successivamente il nome. 2000 Since the year 2000, five cousins have been pursuing a project begun 70 years earlier, with the same convictions and values. 2018 Fare grandi vini, esaltare il territorio, invitare il mondo a conoscerlo attraverso un bicchiere. The name Villamagna comes from two Latin words: "Villa", manor, and "magnus", brilliant. It is no coincidence that, in the past, it has always served as a summer residence for the clergy, as evidenced by the magnificent Palace of the Archdiocese. Built in the 16th century, the structure overlooks the valley offering spectacular views of the vineyards, seemingly endless. Villamagna is an important Città del Vino that, in recent years, has distinguished itself among others for the production of a full-bodied red wine. From the 2011 harvest, with a range composed solely of red wine, Villamagna Doc was released in Base and Riserva versions, in order to achieve quality and taste objectives.
