Montalcino Gems
In the company of Count Francesco Marone Cinzano, owner of the Col d'Orcia estate, discover three crus from the village of Montalcino. Located a few km south of Siena in Tuscany, Col d'Orcia literally means "the hill overlooking the Orcia river", which also delimits the southwestern part of the area of the famous Brunello-di-Montalcino. But the region is also conducive to Cabernet Sauvignon, which you can discover under the Sant’Antimo appellation!

Sangiovese
Sangiovese owes its fame to the great wines of Tuscany, famous since the Middle Ages. It is widespread throughout the Italian peninsula, and its cherry and spice scents come in several styles depending on where it is grown. It is now found in temperate regions of California where it manages to express all the finesse of its aromas.
