One hill, five vocations.
The estate sits within the DOCG Montecucco appellation. Its productive vocation has been the planting of roughly three hectares of specialised vineyard — predominantly Sangiovese with a portion of Cabernet Sauvignon. Two hectares are given to a specialised olive grove, the arable land remains suited to cereals, hay and future vines, and the balance is woodland and Mediterranean scrub.
How the hill divides.
Roughly thirty hectares, split between productive vineyard, an unused planting right, olive grove, arable land and woodland. A composition that combines farm income, room to expand and protected landscape.
The vineyard.
About 3.4 hectares of specialised vineyard, established to the Montecucco disciplinary — predominantly Sangiovese with a portion of Cabernet Sauvignon. A further hectare may be planted under an existing right, taking the vineyard beyond four hectares.
- DOC Montecucco Rosso, organic
- Sangiovese with a portion of Cabernet Sauvignon
- +1 ha planting right available
- Excellent southern exposure
The olive grove.
Two hectares of specialised olive grove, with roughly 250 trees in production, yield a characterful organic extra-virgin oil. The planted area can be extended, with significant potential once new groves mature.
- Specialised grove, organic
- ≈250 trees in production
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- Extendable onto adjoining arable land
Arable & woodland.
Nearly eleven hectares of arable land — suited to cereals, hay and future vines — give the farm breathing room and flexibility. The balance of the hill, around thirteen hectares, is woodland and Mediterranean scrub: privacy, landscape and a protected frame all around the house.
- ≈10.91 ha arable land
- Cereals, hay and future vines
- ≈12.69 ha woodland & scrub
- A reserve of privacy and landscape
