The Estate

Our estate extends for 40 hectares (100 acres) on a single hill cultivated with vines, olive orchards and other crops. Our vineyards extend about 15 hectares (37 acres) along clay soils that date back to the Pliocene Era. Our soils are rich in fossils, and at 100 meters (330 Feet) above sea level, our microclimate allows for perfect vine growing conditions. The varieties grown are those of the Tuscan tradition: Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Trebbiano, Vermentino, Malvasia Bianca and Nera, Buonamico, San Colombano and a local variety, which was in serious danger of disappearing, Sanforte (whose genetic heritage we have traced back in time). We also have more recently planted international varieties: Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
