La Regola

“Territory, Nature, Men and Art. From this we know our… Rules”

The company was founded in 1990 and was the first to discover Riparbella’s winemaking potential and to produce the first quality wines. From the small family vineyard purchased at the beginning of the last century in “La Regola” (a place name dating back to the 18th century), it now boasts 26 hectares of entirely organic vineyards of Vermentino and Sangiovese, as well as international varietals such as Chardonnay, Viogner, Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. These are the source of the Cru wines La Regola and Strido, awarded Tre Bicchieri by Gambero Rosso.

The estate also produces entirely on-site classic method sparkling wines from Manseng and Pinot Noir, a full-bodied passito (400-450 g/l), an aged grappa, and an organic extra virgin olive oil. The company is now run by brothers Luca and Flavio Nuti, the fourth generation, who are joined by their children, Nuti Valentino and Nuti Nicolò, both oenologists, and Nuti Vittoria. The new winery, built in 2016, is among the most innovative in Tuscany. It is eco-sustainable and solar-powered, and also features a charging station for bicycles and vehicles. It is embellished with design and artistic elements, such as the fresco in the barrel cellar by artist Stefano Tonelli, inspired by the Etruscans and wine.

The territory, nature, the human factor, respect for the environment and the valorization of art are the founding “rules” of the company philosophy for which the winery received a special award in the international competition “La fabbrica nel paesaggio” (The Factory in the Landscape) sponsored by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage (MIBACT) and the UNESCO Club Associations, as well as recognition by the prestigious FORBES magazine as one of the 100 Iconic Wineries of Italy.
