Montenero d'Orcia 1331 farm is situated on the slopes of Mount Amiata, at about 250 meters above the sea level, along Orcia river, which separated it from Montalcino Commune.
The particularly propitious microclimate and an average calcareous soil set up the basic premises to produce valuable wines and a very good extra virgin IGP olive oil. Since 1998, with the institution of DOC Montecucco, the farm has been turning more and more its interest to cultivate vine, mainly planting sangiovese clones, a very hard to manage autochthonous species of vine, but which gives excellent results in these places. Currently the producing plants cover a surface of about 4 hectares, but are going to increase in the future. The farm, which extends for over 40 hectares, cultivates also forages and cereals, in particular durum wheat, applying complete respect for the environment. A warrant of this is the fact that we have been among the first to believe in the validity of "agriquality brand" project and "integrated method", the so-called "white butterfly", which recalls a clean and pure nature. Since 2006, with the same attentions that are dedicated to produce oil and wine, Montenero d'Orcia 1331 has been attending the activity of farm holidays, with a completely renewed structure. Here the tourist has the opportunity to pass a holiday in tranquillity, living close to nature and tasting the farm's products.
