Description
A little piece of Tuscany will be yours to follow, as you explore some of the most breathtaking vineyards and landscapes in the region.
Your experience continues beyond the vineyard, as the wine from your vine is delivered directly to your door where wine shipping is permitted (local duties may apply), or as you return to your special place in Tuscany with friends and family to enjoy unforgettable winery tours and tastings.
By adopting a vine, you become a personal stakeholder in the creation of a prestigious Tuscan wine, with the unique opportunity to follow its life cycle throughout the year.
Imagine the feeling of tasting a fine Tuscan wine that you helped bring to life. This is more than a gift—it is a rare and meaningful experience, a lasting connection to the beauty and tradition of Tuscany.
Location - Tuscany
The annual grape harvest in Tuscany usually occurs between September and October and since ancient times has been one of the most exciting events of country life. The exact date is decided year by year, depending on the weather, the quantity of rainfall and the changes from one vineyard to another.
The time of ripening of the grapes depends on many factors such as geographical location and exposure of the vineyards. For example, vineyards at a higher altitude have cooler temperatures and slower ripening, even though they are closer to the sun, or a vineyard facing south favors more maturation of the grapes than one facing north. Once we’ve established the right time of ripening of the grapes, we let all of our relatives know so that the whole Tenuta Torciano family and staff can participate in this event.
The harvest is done manually in order to choose each cluster and to lay the grapes gently in baskets that will be brought immediately to the cellar. Here the grapes are passed through the de-stemming machine that separates the berries from the stems. The grapes then flow into fermentation tanks and the process of wine making that has been followed for generations begins.
There are many factors influencing the hard work of harvest and we dedicate our lives to obtaining the best quality from our vineyards, and only experience can help us to prevent difficulties that could undermine the health of our wine.
Yield of the vine
How many vines does it take to make a bottle of wine?
A grapevine usually produces about 3 kg of fruit so, if we consider that the average yield of grapes is around 70%, we can say it takes roughly 2.1 kg of grapes per bottle and one vine can produce from one to two bottles of wine.
The vine adoption program includes a section of a row, meaning the part of the vine that goes from one pole to the other. The grapes from these vines go into the bottles of wine listed in your package, so the wine you receive comes from your adopted vines.
The vines of the row that you adopt will stand out from the others as the row will have a wooden plaque engraved with the name you choose.
