It was in 1669 when, returning from a trip to France, Orazio Spada brought back some Grenache vine shoots from which he succeeded in producing an exquisite wine, the so-called 'Chianti di Viceno'. Preserved and handed down from father to son for almost 400 years, even today those vines are still kept on the vine and represent one of Feudi Spada's most precious treasures. To those original vines have been added others of Syrah, Rhine Riesling and Alicante. We are in the heart of Umbria where, thanks to the meeting of two friends, Alessandro and Maurizio, a new adventure began in 2010, aimed at recovering and enhancing the value of old plots of land. Starting with historical plantings of over 90 years old, recovered and grafted by grafting scions from mother plants. Today Feudi Spada is a beautiful, modern and up-to-date reality. No insecticides, anti-botritics, weed killers or chemical fertilisers are used in the vineyard. In general, treatments in the vineyard are reduced to the bare minimum, through maniacal attention to the weather and the health of the vines. An onerous commitment that is, however, amply repaid when one has the opportunity to taste one of the good products of the beautiful Viceno winery.
