On the hills of Maremma, at the foot of Mount Amiata and about 40 km from the sea, 26.0-ha organic wine estate for sale. The property boasts a large (770 sqm) well-equipped winery that enables it to produce about 40,000 bottles of wine a year by exploiting the 8.5-ha Montecucco DOCG vineyard. However, the winery maintains considerable potential for development.
The farm was started from scratch in 2000 from abandoned and non-productive land: over the years all the vines have been planted and the profitability of the business has been improved.
Basic services are available in the nearby village (4km; 5') and most of Tuscany’s art cities can be reached in less than two hours by car (Montalcino, Montepulciano, Siena, San Gimignano, Florence...).


DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS, STATE AND FINISHES
The wine cellar (770 sqm – 8,285 sqft) is a modern building on three floors, equipped with all the equipment for winemaking and storage of the finished product. On the highest level is a large collection terrace for the grapes, which then reach by fall the room below where the tanks and vats for the actual production of wine are located. Further below are the aging rooms, bottling line, warehouse for the finished product and a bathroom for employees, as well as a technical room for equipment.

A short distance from the winery, on the other hand, is a commercial space (140 sqm – 1,506 sqft) where there is a retail space, a large tasting room with a pergola and bathrooms for customers on the ground floor. Going up to the second floor, on the other hand, one reaches the administrative office with attached bathroom and warehouse for products.


EXTERIOR AND WINE PRODUCTION
The estate spreads over a total of 26.0 hectares (64.2 acres) lying on the hills of Maremma. The mainstay of the estate is the vineyard (8.5 ha) registered to Montecucco DOCG (8.3 ha) and Maremma Toscana DOC Ansonica (0.2 ha).
• Vineyard surface: 8.5 hectares (21.0 acres)
• Varieties: Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pugnitello, Colorino, Ansonica
• Altitude and exposure: 400 - 450 m asl (south, southwest)
• Years of planting: 2002 - 2015

The remaining farm area, however, is devoted to arable land (5.3 ha), grazing land (8.0 ha) and woodland (4.1 ha). Part of the tree-free areas are very suitable for planting new vineyards (about 5.0 ha), while the other areas have steep slopes that lend themselves well to olive and/or fruit trees instead.
