Paolo Conterno – Tenuta Ortaglia

With Tenuta Ortaglia, Giorgio Conterno has combined his Piedmontese origins with a Tuscan passion. In addition to his Barolos from Piedmont, he is now devoting himself to a second project close to his heart – a place that has captivated him for years.

«Fate brought me to Ortaglia,’ he says. ‘I happened to hear about it, and shortly afterwards I was there. I knew immediately that Ortaglia was a special place.’ It took eight years to complete the takeover. ‘But it was worth it. Tuscany and Piedmont are the two regions where I can best express my passion – living close to nature and working in the vineyard to create wines, as I learned to do according to old traditions.»

Tenuta Ortaglia actually has a long history: in 1586, Francesco I de' Medici chose the estate as a summer residence for Bianca Cappello. Nestled in the hills of Fiesole at the foot of the Apennines, it offers sweeping views over Florence – a landscape that impressively combines history, culture and nature.

Today, the estate comprises 12 hectares of land with loamy-calcareous soils and sandstone marl. At around 600 metres above sea level, the vineyards are characterised by a temperate, Mediterranean-influenced climate, with striking temperature differences between day and night ensuring freshness, depth of aroma and structure.

This unique Tuscan interpretation produces wines full of character with a clear signature. They do not follow the mainstream, but reflect the terroir, altitude and personal convictions of their winemaker – a confident counterpart to the Piedmontese heritage of the Conterno family.

The Kreithof, as the ancestral estate is known, is located near the idyllic Lake Caldaro in South Tyrol (Alto Adige) and has been cultivated by the Nicolussi-Leck family since 1915. Standing guard over it are the medieval ruins of Leuchtenburg Castle, which – like the estate – dates back to the 13th century and was presumably also associated with nearby Laimburg Castle in the Etsch Valley.
