The Tenuta
Visiting Tenuta Le Velette, you realize that you are in a place that tells of a long history.
The Etruscan caves and cellars, perhaps once tombs, can be visited today because they are used for maturing the wine in small oak barrels.
The remnants of old Roman structures, the thick walls of the central part of the villa, the cabrei (a kind of inventory) that refer to noble families who once controlled these areas, and the church already found on maps from the 18th century, are some of the stages of a history that here has always left concrete, visible traces.
In the wines of Tenuta Le Velette there is the story of a world, that of wine,which began in 1870 and continues today. Wines that tell of the generations of men and women that made great transformationsin creatinga product of excellence acclaimed all over the world.

A world that was once one of habits, simple traditions, but today is the result of knowledge achieved through the commitment to responsible and generous hard work.
Today’s knowledge, however, cannot be the definitive certainty of techniques applied for the making of superior wines, but rather the driving force behind the continuous search for quality, which a more attentive, curious and experienced consumer seeks.
This is our job, to fill bottles with a wine that is the result of experience, and that with its aromas, fragrances, vivacity, character and enjoyableness, can convey to the consumer the results of the hard work and commitment of seven generations. It is the pleasure of research and the desire to achieve better results that always drives us forward.
That’s the way we are at Tenuta Le Velette.
