Tips for Your Winery Visit in Montalcino
The Montalcino region is now home to traditional, organic, and biodynamic wineries that combine history, territory, nature, technology, tradition, and wine. Each offers a personalized and engaging experience, with the possibility to book tastings and tours both in the cellar and in the vineyard, to discover how wines are produced, the techniques of production, and aging.
A tradition that has been present in Montalcino for a long time, with the establishment of the Brunello Consortium in 1967 giving it a significant boost. Consider that since then, the vineyard area has grown from just under 65 hectares to over 2000, transforming the Montalcino territory into a unique landscape, dominated by vineyards alternating with cypress rows, oak forests, and strawberry trees.
How to choose the winery to visit:
For those without an extended stay, we recommend researching the type of tasting offered, the days and type of reception available, the distances to reach the winery, and any additional experiences offered alongside the tasting: vineyard dinners or lunches, horseback riding or cycling excursions.
Wineries have been designed not only for preservation but also to amaze visitors. Evocative places strategically situated or adapted from pre-existing spaces within 16th-century noble residences, all perfectly integrated into the landscape, each with a story to tell and unique views to reveal.
