Description
Just a mile away from the city of Montepulciano, near the border between Tuscany and neighbouring Umbria, sits La Braccesca, an Antinori property since 1990.
Santa Pia is produced from a 15-hectare (37 acres) vineyard located on the ridges just below the town of Montepulciano. This particular area has sandy loamy soils rich in rocky deposits known as “scheletro” that allow Antinori to create an elegant yet traditional expression of the Sangiovese grape that reflects the characteristics of this historic winemaking area. The first vintage to be produced was 2001.
