Montalcino, Tuscany
The Story
The estate comprises 18 hectares of woods, vineyards and olive groves. Brunello vineyards lie on the north-northeastern slope of the Montalcino hill at about 330 meters a.s.l.; olive groves, woodland and a younger vineyard are located on the southeastern slope at about 500 meters a.s.l. There are five vineyards, all planted in Sangiovese Grosso, created by a massal selection from the estate of Il Greppo, with an average age of 15 years. The vineyards, covering a total of eight hectares, are trained mainly in spurred cordon with an average plant density of 4,500 vines per hectare. The soil is of oceanic origin, so rich in marine fossils with streaks of clay and a notable presence of marl and tufa.
