Terricciola
An Etruscan village carved into the tufa, among vineyards and olive mills.
Three thousand years of hills, told at the table and in the glass
Terricciola rises in the Era Valley, in the province of Pisa. Beneath its streets the Etruscans carved hypogea into the tufa; above, the hills produce some of the most acclaimed wines and oils of the Terre di Pisa. It is explored slowly, hamlet by hamlet.
Tufa hypogea from the 6th to the 3rd century BC, today natural cellars and places to explore.
Historic and new wineries between Morrona, Casanova and Soiana, the heart of the Pisan hills' denominations.
Olive mills and extra-virgin oils that tell the same landscape, row of olives after row of vines.
The landscape
An island of red rooftops suspended among the hills of the Valdera.
