Muralia

In 1997 Chiara Casali and Stefano Casali fell for the silence, peace, and sunsets of Tuscan Maremma and turned that love into Muralia, starting with 14 hectares and a simple goal: make wine that interprets the gifts of the land. Their philosophy pairs passion and know how with respect for traditional values, and in the cellar they focus on “listening” to the grapes and letting the fruit speak without interference. The vineyards stretch across limestone, clay, and stony soils once worked for minerals, and the varied altitudes from the flat plots at Poggiarello to the hills of Sassofortino are meant to build a pronounced minerality that feels true to the area. Helped by his team, Stefano guides the work in the vines, then brings the harvest into a cellar built inside a hill and hidden by a wall of ancient stones so it sits quietly within nature. Even the logo, drawn from a Sumerian symbol for “hand,” points back to the human touch at the core of the place, from working the land near Roccastrada to picking grapes and carrying them to the glass.
