The vineyards of Poggio Antico can be found at an altitude of 480m above sea level, which is one of the highest of all vineyards located in Brunello. The mountain climate combined with the nearness of the Tyrrhenian Sea ensures that the vineyards enjoy a steady flow of breeze even during the dry seasons. The breeze is an important reason for the elegance in the fruits grown here. Poggio Antico Rosso di Montalcino DOC is a premium Italian red wine that is produced in Tuscany's Montalcino region. This wine is carefully crafted using 100% Sangiovese grapes, which are grown in the estate's vineyards and harvested by hand.

It is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to experience the taste of Tuscany in every sip.
