Situated 350 meters above sea level, Poggi del Sasso is not simply a sanctuary away from everything and everyone, it is where both silence and the roar of uncontaminated nature meet.
Striking views of the Tyrrhenian Sea to the west offer cool late-spring and summer breezes, the dense forests and the flowing Ombrone river below creates dramatic and favorable contrasts in temperature year-round.
Our estate and castle was built by the Republic of Siena over 900 years ago and offers an atmosphere unrivalled in Italy’s most famous region of Tuscany.

Vineyards
Our high-density approach to cultivation produces rich, complex, and intense wines, made to be enjoyed now or in the future. The intertwined narrative of the vines, land, climate, dedication and passion all converge and live within every bottle.
Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot were each chosen to honor the classic wines of Tuscany. Sangiovese, a staple of Tuscan winemaking is blended with Merlot to create an alternative interpretation of the Maremma.
Our seven hectares range from 11,000 to 14,000 plants per hectare and are divided between classic cordon training and ancient “alberello”, or head spur, training. Natural sulphur and copper are the only treatments we use in our organic vineyards.

Our property has been organic since the beginning – not a trend, but our way of life, and the ultimate appreciation for sustainability and Tuscan traditions
