Ampeleia

Ampeleia began with a conversation over lunch in the Alps. The idea that emerged became one of coastal Tuscany's most distinctive biodynamic estates, built around Cabernet Franc and a refusal to use a single wooden barrel.

The estate was founded in 2000 by Giovanni Podini, the Trentino winemaker Elisabetta Foradori, and Thomas Widmann. It is now led by the Podini family, with Foradori on the board and closely involved in the wines. Winemaker Marco Tait joined in 2002 at the age of 22 and has guided the estate's evolution into a fully biodynamic farm and ecosystem ever since.

More on how they farm and work in the cellar in our Ampeleia producer profile.
