I Pilastri is located in Località Murrotto, in the municipality of Castagneto Carducci, within the coastal hills of Tuscany that gently descend toward the Tyrrhenian Sea. This area, shaped by Mediterranean influences and constant sea breezes, is particularly suited to viticulture, offering ideal conditions for producing wines of freshness, balance, and strong territorial identity.
The estate is deeply connected to its landscape, where vineyards coexist harmoniously with olive groves and natural vegetation. The proximity to the sea plays a fundamental role in moderating temperatures, ensuring good ventilation and preserving acidity in the grapes throughout the growing season.
The vineyards are planted at approximately 250 meters above sea level on soils that vary from plot to plot. Some parcels are richer in clay with a significant presence of pebbles, while others are more sandy in composition. This diversity contributes to complexity and nuance in the wines, allowing the grapes to express both structure and elegance.
I Pilastri embraces organic farming practices, guided by a philosophy that prioritizes soil health, biodiversity, and respect for the natural environment. Vineyard work is carried out with meticulous attention, aiming to preserve the authentic character of the grapes and the land from which they come.
In the cellar, the approach remains restrained and precise, with the goal of enhancing varietal purity and the distinctive traits of the Colli di Luni area. The resulting wines are direct, expressive, and faithful reflections of their origin, capturing the maritime influence and the mineral tension that define this unique corner of Tuscany.
