Petra Winery
300ha estate with a boutique winery in the Maremma



Founded in 1997 in Suvereto’s Val di Cornia by Vittorio Moretti and his daughter Francesca, Petra Winery encompasses a 300ha estate, a third of which is planted with vineyards. The winery, which sits 150 metres deep in the ground with a tunnel-like wine cellar, as well as the vineyard, were designed by the famous Swiss architect Mario Botta, who built the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Tastings take place in a nearby Italian farmhouse, where visitors can savour wines in the most authentic, rustic setting.
