This 124.4-hectare winery is nestled in the hills of Volterra, in a location of rare beauty and enjoying unparalleled privacy and tranquility. Built between 2013 and 2019, this cutting-edge, state-of-the-art wine cellar is a true architectural masterpiece, organized according to eco-sustainable principles that are also reflected in the sublime quality of the wines.

With more than 23.5 hectares of vineyards, the winery currently produces about 60,000 bottles of wine (both red and white) with plans to reach 130,000 bottles per years. Right next the business is a beautiful, fully renovated 1490s historical house, located not far from the winery and surrounded by the vineyards that also frame the swimming pool.

The property is the crowning of a dream and the result of years of work and commitment to create an activity in complete harmony with nature, harnessing geothermal and solar energy to minimize the impact on the environment and create what is, to all intents and purposes, the winery of the future.

 

The estate spreads over an area of about 124.4 hectares (307.4 acres). The estate focuses mainly on vineyards (23.5 ha), an olive grove (6.0 ha) and large portions of arable land that could be for the most part (about 50 ha) used for planting new vines. The remaining area is occupied by woods (28.0 ha) that include a ground for white truffles (Tuber magnatum). A very important detail, the estate's vineyards are entirely fenced and protected from wild animals.

A 27,000 m³ private lake located on the grounds allows the gardens and fields to be irrigated without having to rely on private wells or the municipal water supply, ensuring self-sufficiency in this regard as well.

In front of the winery, just across the road, an ENAC-authorized helipad has also been built, allowing guests to reach the property conveniently from the air.

 

The farm is located on a hillside, about 430 m a.s.l. and the coast of Tuscany is visible in the distance. The vines are continuously refreshed by the sea breeze, which keeps them strong and lively, allowing the production of superb wines. The location of the winery is, moreover, very interesting being halfway between the Bolgheri and Chianti areas, ensuring an average summer temperature of about 5°C lower than that of Chianti. 

The planting of the vines was preceded by careful zoning, with chemical and physical analysis of the soils, which made it possible to plant each variety in the optimal spot that would allow the grapes to express their characteristics to the fullest. The estate's soil is clayish, very rich in skeleton and marine fossils with intrusions of alabaster, a snow-white limestone material also used by local sculptors to create beautiful sculptures.

The winery is managed by a fully independent team of experts and passionate individuals led by agronomist Michele Senesi and viticulturist Stefano Dini who brought incredible innovations in Monterosola together with their innate passion for winemaking. All the wine production methods are also closely followed and supervised by oenologist Giacomo Cesare, a longtime business partner of the world-class oenologist Alberto Antonini (Frescobaldi e Antinori). Sustainable agriculture and organic wine making are at the core of Monterosola’s philosophy.

The area of Volterra, located between the Valdicecina and Valdera, has an ancient agricultural tradition that has its roots in the Etruscan period: the city was in fact one of the largest of the Etruscan Dodecapolis and was already known at the time for the wines and oils produced in the area, blessed by a climate mitigated by the nearby sea.

 

 

The entrance to the property, closed by a recognizable gate, is located right along the road that connects San Gimignano and Volterra. The road to the property winds through the estate's fields and vineyards and passes right under Mauro Staccioli's monumental work, symbolically titled First Steps and placed right at the entrance to the estate. From the gate, it almost seems as if the farm's internal road passes inside the sculpture's circle.
