VECCHIA CANTINA DI MONTEPULCIANO is the oldest cooperative in Tuscany. Founded in 1937 on the initiative of 14 pioneering producers, its production history began in 1940 with the first bottling. Having survived the difficult years of the Second World War and the land reorganisation of the 1950’s, the Winery operated through the 60’s and 70’s as a true, driving force throughout the entire territory, a role that it maintains today. 

Vecchia Cantina di Montepulciano is comprised of about 400 members (for a total of about 1,000 hectares of vineyards and 5,000,000 bottles produced), who have chosen to combine their passion and respect for the land and work together for a common purpose – guaranteeing the continued production of quality products at affordable prices. 

The emblem on Vecchia Cantina di Montepulciano’s crest is a winged lion rampant. This is an icon of phantasy born of the union between the “gryphon rampant”, an ancient mythological symbol that evokes the long history of the Comune of Montepulciano from its Etruscan origins, and the “lion”, an emblem of the Florentine nobility, which had a profound influence on the life of Montepulciano, both in terms of public administration and architecture, and town planning during the 15th and 16th centuries.

The Val-Dieu abbey beers were inspired by the brewing traditions of the monks. For many centuries beer was a trusted alternative to the not-very-reliable drinking water that caused illnesses such as cholera. Throughout the years, monks have greatly enhanced our knowledge of the brewing process.

Their know-how was translated into recipes that inspire brewers up to this day.

A characteristic of the Val-Dieu beers is their use of soft water. Unlike most abbeys, the monks here do not source their water from a well or spring, but from Lake Gileppe, a freshwater, artificial lake.

It is worth nothing that this area is renowned for the quality of its water, and is home to the well-known springs at Spa (the original spa resort), Bru and Chaudfontaine. All of these are within a 30-kilometre radius from the abbey.

The abbey’s top-fermented beers are created using the traditional infusion method, where warm water is gradually added to the mash until the desired 75°C temperature is achieved. At this point, the starch is released, which in the next stage will be converted into sugars that will feed the yeast. No herbs or other aromatics are added to the mother beers: blond, dark and tripel.

The beers will then undergo their main fermentation using a house yeast that is cultivated within the brewery. This yeast typically gives fruity aromas, often with a hint of banana.

All Val-Dieu beers re-ferment in the bottle. For re-fermentation, a different yeast is used that does not affect either the aroma or the taste.

The beers are given plenty of time to develop their alcohol volume as well as their complex taste and aromas. The entire production process takes six to eight weeks. The re-fermentation in the warm chamber alone, accounts for three weeks.
