At the #WinesOfItaly Blab, on July 14th at 9pmCET / 3pmET / 12pmPT we talked wine in Maremma with Martin Kerres from Valdonica winery in Sassofortina, close to Grosseto. The winery was founded in 2006 by Martin who is originally from Austria. The estate comprises an area of 250 acres of which about 25 acres are vineyards where they cultivate, for example, Vermentino, Ciliegiolo, and Sangiovese. Since 2012, they cultivate only indigenous grapes and are organically certified. They produce wine within the denomination Monteregio di Massa Marittima.
