Tenuta dei Colli
In Montalcino since 1979, with one grape and a great deal of patience. Pure Sangiovese, vintages released when they are ready rather than when they are needed.
One hill, one grape, no hurry
Poggio Alto faces south at four hundred metres, where the wind dries the vines after the rain and the nights stay cool even in August. It is the only place we work, and Sangiovese is the only grape we plant there.
Vintages differ, and we do not make them alike: what the harvest does not give, we do not add later. Some years the riserva is not released at all, and that is fine.
For a few seasons now part of the production has travelled to northern Europe, where this way of working needed no explaining.
