tenuta pietranera

Pietranera Estate

Tenuta Pietranera represents an extraordinary extension of specialized vineyard which, unlike other hilly vineyards in the area, forms a single body positioned in a bright and protected plain. This conformation allows the vineyards to benefit from the constant presence of the sun and the beneficial protection of Mount Amiata, which casts its shadow only at the end of the day, offering stable and favorable conditions for the slow maturation of Sangiovese cultivated with the most traditional method, in full respect of the authenticity of the territory.
