Madonna Nera
La Madonna is the ancient name of these hilly lands, wrapped in an enchanted landscape, where nature and art come together with that incredible mastery that is the specific trademark of Tuscan civilization. Today the place hold a young farm, recently created and inspired by respect for the traditions of the land and a profound taste. The company extends six hectares of vineyards, two of which are located in the area of the Abbey of Sant’Antimo, used for the production of Brunello di Montalcino. Each row is introduced by a rose plant, as dictated by the most beautiful of the customs of those who cultivate the vine. All around grow olive trees and Mediterranean vegetation to decorate the garden. Between the green of the myrtle, the white of the roses and the blue of the lavender, there are three buildings of local blond stone: the main house, an ancient tower that has guarded the north-east side of the property for centuries and an annex with a large terrace dedicated to wine tasting.
