Winery in Suvereto (Tuscany) known for single-varietal wines and crus based on Merlot, Cabernet and Sangiovese; it offers agritourism, a restaurant, and cellar tours.
Originally established as a mixed agricultural estate in Suvereto, the winery progressively specialized in viticulture from the 1980s. The arrival of oenologist Barbara Tamburini in the early 2000s marked a shift toward single-varietal wines and crus. In 2022 the estate was acquired by Mauro Gestri, who initiated a plan to renovate and expand the vineyards and winery facilities.
