Experience description

At the Badia di Morrona, the cellars have been constructed on six different levels, but this will not be immediately evident because they are almost completely below ground thanks to work, much desired by the Gaslini Alberti family, aimed at fully respecting the surrounding environment and landscape

You will enter initially into the fermentation area with its temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and you will already find yourself at the second level, the bottling facilities are below. Two flights of stairs will take you to the third level, where there are other fermentation tanks, smaller in size, utilized for the production of the white wines. On the fourth level you will enter into the large round space which houses the oak casks and small oak barrels utilized for the aging of the estate’s most important wines. You will then arrive at the fifth level where the cement tanks, particularly suitable for the stocking of the wine before it will be bottled. This is, as well, the level of the estate’s shop where visitors will be able to taste and acquire all of the Badia di Morrona products, including the extra-virgin olive oil. 

The Wine Tour will end with a tasting of three Badia di Morrona wines.

Curiosities

  • The property was always confirmed to the Camaldolese monks by the Papacy and placed under the jurisdiction of the bishopric of Volterra, until 1284. From that year on, the Abbey was disputed between Pisans, Volterrans, Florentines and monks. Only with a military act of 1482, the vicar of the bishop of Volterra, Bartolomeo Soderini, took possession of it and made it his personal residence for the holidays.

Nearby places to visit
