POGGIO IL CASTELLARE

For many years, Brunello di Montalcino is unanimously considered
the most prestigious Italian red wine with controlled name of origin. 
The production area covers the entire hilly land of the territory
of Montalcino. 

The Poggio Il Castellare vineyards are located in the hamlet of
Castelnuovo Abate, next to the spectacular panorama of the Abbey
of Saint Antimo, opposite the Val d’Orcia (Orcia Valley) from which
Mount Amiata rises imposingly.

“Castellare”, the name of the farming estate, originates from an old
Etruscan settlement.  The ruins of the houses and towers of this settlement
can be found on this hill.  Starting off from this hill, one can go for wonderful
walks through the small, old paths that lead to the Abbey.  Sunset watched
from the Abbey of Saint Antimo is considered one of the greatest marvels
of the world.  According to popular tradition, meeting in Sant Antimo at
sunset fills one with emotions that will never be forgotten.
