Shop Caiarossa WinesThe Essence of the Red Terroir
Located on the untamed slopes of Val di Cecina, near the Maremma coast, Caiarossa represents the forefront of anthroposophical viticulture in Italy. Its name evokes the gravel and red clay soils that impart a saline minerality and vibrant energy to its wines.
Under the vision of the Albada Jelgersma family, the winery uses a gravity-fed vinification process in a structure designed according to Feng Shui principles. This philosophy seeks to translate the flow of energy into timeless elegance, a quality frequently highlighted by critics such as James Suckling in his annual reviews.
The Riparbella terroir is unique in coastal Tuscany. It is divided into over 40 microbiologically distinct plots based on the geological composition of the land, which ranges from marine aeolian and calcareous deposits to complex rocks composed of serpentinite, iron, and red jasper. This extraordinary geological diversity allows for the cultivation of up to 11 different grape varieties on the same property, achieving ideal phenolic ripeness thanks to the Tyrrhenian Sea breezes and Mediterranean solar radiation.
Each cluster is worked with absolute organoleptic precision: manual harvesting is carried out in small 15 kg boxes to preserve the integrity of the fruit, and fermentations are performed exclusively with indigenous yeasts in French oak vats and neutral concrete tanks. The result is a range of refined Super Tuscan wines, where the terroir takes precedence over human intervention.
Selected Portfolio
Caiarossa IGT Toscana
The iconic wine of the house. A masterful blend of up to 11 varieties (Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Sangiovese, and Alicante) that captures the total complexity of the estate. Patiently aged in French oak barrels and large casks for about 14 to 20 months, it offers a deep nose of black fruits, balsamic spices, graphite, and mineral notes. Its sophisticated profile has earned it consistent recognition in reference publications such as Wine Advocate.
Aria di Caiarossa
The expression of Mediterranean freshness. A structured blend based on Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon that stands out for its accessibility, vibrancy, and aromatic elegance. With refined aging in second and third-use wood, it preserves the vitality of wild flowers, fresh blueberries, and a touch of Tuscan scrub (macchia mediterranea).
Pergolaia
A tribute to Central Italian winemaking tradition. Predominantly Sangiovese complemented by small percentages of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, this wine balances the juicy typicality of Tuscany with the biodynamic finesse of the coast. On the palate, it exhibits round tannins, crisp acidity, and pleasant nuances of sour cherry, soft leather, and aromatic herbs.
