QUERCIAROSSA

Querciaross Label


HISTORY

A hill filled with "resplendent" light, a strech of vineyards with two enormous
oaks at the centre: we're at the Fattoria Querciarossa (Red Oak Esate) between
Magliano in Tuscany and the sea t Talamone.

An enchanted place, inhabited since the "dawn" of our history; in fact
archaeological finds date from the Bronze Age to the Rinaldone era, with
the Archer's tomb right next to the wine cellar.

Near the vineyards, the Etruscans dug an entire Necropolis out of the
"calcareaou" rock, leaving a great many "cinnabar red" colour paintings.

The Romans also settled in these places; the remins of an entire Roman Farm
were found consisting of the landowner's villa and other houses.

The most recent discovery is perhaps the most facinating: the remains of an
ancient vineyard dating to the Etruscan period.

This land so rich in history just had to have a continuation in the era of the
millennium: Fattoria Querciarossa with its cellar and vineyards, producing wines
whose name and structure hark back to the history and strength of this territory.
