Guests are always welcomed at Casa Emma, which has an open door policy even on Sundays, for those who want to taste our products in a place suspended between two extraordinary wine realms: Florence and Siena.

Laura, Paolo and Fabrizio have been dedicated to welcoming visitors for years (individuals and small groups) and explaining how, through hard work and patience, excellent wine is produced from the initial rows of vines.

After having seen the route undertaken by the clusters of grapes that pass from the vineyard, through a variety of procedures to the wine cellar, tasting time comes and our wine can be taken together with Tuscan sheep’s cheese and salami from the Sienese belt on the panoramic terrace immersed in the charming Tuscan countryside or in the tasting room.

For anyone who likes tasting our wines at their best, we can serve it accompanied by a little selection of bruschettas, salami and cheeses typical of the region.

Our visits last about an hour and booking is necessary.
Contact us for reservations.

We recently presented our new Reserve 2006 vintage. The climatic conditions in 2006 was excellent, especially in summer when we got warm and sunny days that led to the ripeness of an excellent standard, then the month of September, has completed the enrichment of polyphenols and sugar with warm days and cool nights with differences in temperatures of 13/15 degrees centigrade between night and giorno.Il wine shows the sight of a beautiful red ruby load at the nose is rich with aromas of red fruit among them being the el'amarena wild cherry, spicy sensations such as leather and coffee on a background of vanilla from aging in wood up, never intrusive. In the mouth it is structured, rich and inviting, with soft tannins and pleasant, with a length of taste great. Try with red meats: roasts or preferably stufati.Continua yet a little selling of the last cases of Reserve 2005, which has reached its optimum maturity in the bottle.

 
Success of the personalized wine

It has just been released the new born wine of Casa Emma, the product of a very small vineyard. The production is actually quite small, it is of about 800 bottles. Produced mainly from Sangiovese grapes and a small amount of additional native grapes, it is a balanced wine, pleasantly fruity at the nose with notes of wild berries in the mouth and is very elegant with soft tannins.
This is an IGT (typical geographical appellation) wine: a basis of 80% Sangiovese grapes - Malvasia Nera 10% and Canaiolo 10%. This wine is aged 12 months. The 70% ages in French oak barrels while the 30% stays in stainless steel (this makes definitely a great drinkability) then a few months in bottle, and his aging plateau is about 4-6 years.
Located in one of the highest sections of the estate, this small vineyard was conceived as an experimental one, offering us wines characterised by a  pleasant acidity and extraordinarily
easy to drink, so the resulting wine seems to be very versatile and easy to pair with a great variety of dishes from starters to pasta and meat. It is just because of his extraordinary versatility in combination, that Casa Emma has defined it the wine of conviviality, created to share pleasant moments with your family, friends or colleagues. Also for this reason we decided to label it with something that the client can customize following his preferences, so he will have on his table at the same time a good bottle of Casa Emma’s wine, with a personal image, logo or personal photos to celebrate a special dinner or event and making it unique and memorable. The occasion may be, for example a birthday, a graduation party, a promotion or a work meeting, or simply “your” wine of every day!  The image will be sent by the customer himself  and we will provide to create the label and apply it to the bottles, that have to be purchased for a minimum of twelve (one case). The special price you can get for the case, including the shipping costs, taxes and duties is 250,00 Euro.
