Terra di Seta Winery, situated in the famous and gorgeous Chianti Classico region of central Tuscany, is a family venture led by Daniele Della Seta and Maria Pellegrini and is part of an organic farm. Located within the municipality of Castelnuovo Berardenga, in the province of Siena, Terra di Seta boasts stunning views equaled by its remarkable wines. Becoming all-kosher in 2008, Terra di Seta consistently delivers great quality Italian wines, arguably the best chianti wines on the kosher market.
Chianti is the primary winemaking region of Tuscany, and its wines are strictly regulated. Tuscany’s most important grape is Sangiovese and it is regulated by the DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita), Italy’s certified guarantee of proper Tuscan wine making from Sangiovese’s native historical region. Chianti Classico must be 80% Sangiovese and aged a minimum of a year in the barrel and bottle.
The Chianti Classico Riserva must also be a minimum 80% Sangiovese, and has two qualifying additional features: The wine must be from more premium grapes, and it must be aged for up to 24 months in the barrel and bottle before it can hit the shelves.
The Assai is made from the vineyard’s most premium grapes, and is 100% Sangiovese aged in new French oak barrels for 24 months. Terra di Seta’s flagship wine.
Rosé of 100% Sangiovese grapes. The must is separated from the skins promptly after just several hours of crushing, then undergoing slow fermentation, finally resting in stainless steel tanks for several hours.

The Della Seta roots can trace 2,000 years of Jewish lineage in Rome while the Tuscan Pellegrini side can claim three generations of wine making. Daniele was trained as a biologist and Maria long dreamed of owning a winery. After Daniele’s appointment to a local university, it was soon after in 2001 that the family purchased an old winery. Terra di Seta was born and not long after became one of Europe’s only all-kosher wineries in 2008.
