Craftsmanship and Provenance - Organic Viticulture and Terroir
Tenuta Col d'Orcia is a historic winery and a pioneer in **organic viticulture** in Montalcino. The vineyards are situated at an altitude of 300-450 meters and benefit from the cooling influence of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The wine undergoes a maturation of at least **36 months in Slavonian oak barrels** and then receives a long bottle maturation. This results in a wine that is both powerful and elegant and lends itself well to further aging in the cellar.
