The entrance to the estate is an invitation to a journey back in time: a winding path through rows of meticulously maintained vineyards, leading to a rustic Tuscan-style mansion. The estate spans approximately 18 hectares of vineyards, planted mainly with native grape varieties such as Sangiovese, Canaiolo, and Colorino. The terroir of Montevertine, comprised of clay-limestone soils, provides ideal conditions for the growth of these grape varieties, producing distinctive, intense, and beautifully structured wines. The estate follows a traditional winemaking philosophy with an organic approach, where each bottle is a faithful reflection of its terroir. The wines are aged in oak barrels for two years before bottling, a patient treatment that yields wines with deep complexity of flavors. Montevertine produces three remarkable wines, each with its own unique identity. The Pian del Ciampolo, their entry-level wine, is highly appreciated for its fruity character and vibrant freshness. The Montevertine, the estate's iconic wine, is known for its depth and elegance, while the Le Pergole Torte, the crown jewel, is lauded for its aging potential. The cellar, nestled in the heart of the estate, is a must-visit tasting location for wine enthusiasts. The Montevertine Estate also offers guided tours, allowing visitors to discover the secrets of their winemaking process and to taste their exquisite wines.
