Caccia al Piano 1868 (Berlucchi)
From this winery
- Start up year: 1998
- Oenologist: Arturo Ziliani
- Bottles produced: 150.000
- Hectares: 23
At the beginning of the 2000s, Franco Ziliani, owner of Guido Berlucchi and pioneer of the birth of the Classic Method in Franciacorta in the 1960s, decided to bet on an emerging terroir such as Bolgheri in Tuscany to make excellent red wines.
This idea, which culminated with purchasing the Caccia al Piano estate in 2003, came across after visiting the San Biagio vineyard. This marvellous area enjoys a privileged position in the Bolgheri area and a fascinating view of the sea.
Since the beginning, Franco Ziliani's work was driven by the desire to patiently understand the terroir of Bolgheri, respecting what has already been done by the great protagonists who have made the wine of these lands famous. Today, the company is carried on by his children Cristina, Arturo and Paolo.
The Caccia al Piano estate is located in Castagneto Carducci in the town of Bolgheri and was created from the renovation of an ancient hunting estate owned by the noble Della Gherardesca family, dating back to 1868. Thanks to careful redevelopment work in full respect of the surrounding land, the farmhouse has been enlarged and transformed into the current headquarters of the winery. Read more
