Il Pingro

Il Pingro, Sea-Breezed Artisan Wines from the Maremma Coast

Discover the refreshing soul of the Tuscan coast with Il Pingro, a vibrant winery led by Chiara and Margherita. These two cousins have dedicated themselves to breathing new life into their family’s historic vineyards, located just one kilometer from the sea in the province of Grosseto. The name itself is a tribute to "Il Pingrosso," a massive maritime pine planted by their great-grandfather to provide shade during the hot summer harvest. Today, that solitary tree is the symbol of their craft, representing a bridge between past generations and a modern, sustainable vision of viticulture.

The Essence of a Coastal Terroir

What makes Il Pingro wines truly distinctive is the direct influence of the Mediterranean environment, which shapes the character of every grape:

• Salty Mistral Winds: Growing so close to the shore, the vines are constantly shaken by sea breezes. This environment infuses the grapes with a unique mineral quality, giving the wine a recognizable "taste of the sea."

• Sandy and Mineral Soils: The terrain of the Maremma coast provides the perfect drainage and nutrient profile for native varieties, resulting in wines that are light, crisp, and deeply expressive of their origin.

• A Four-Handed Philosophy: Every bottle is the result of manual labor and respectful agriculture. From pruning to harvesting, every step is done by hand to ensure a healthy product that honors the land.

A Curated Selection of Maremma’s Best

Explore the authentic flavors of Il Pingro, where simplicity meets professional care to recreate the timeless "farmer's wine" experience:

• GR1 5652 White Wine: A signature blend of native Ansonica and Procanico grapes, designed to reflect the sun and the salt of the Tuscan coastline.

• Native Heritage Varieties: A focus on indigenous grapes that have thrived in the Grosseto area for centuries, offering a taste profile that you won't find in international blends.

• Artisanal Small-Batch Production: Because every bottle is made with such personal care, these wines represent an exclusive look into the boutique production of young Tuscan vintners.
