These carefully selected clones feature loose clusters, small berries, and thick skins, ensuring high-quality yields even in challenging vintages. These characteristics have made them a benchmark for Tuscan viticulture.

In keeping with its tradition of diversified farming, Il Poggione cultivates multiple crops beyond vines. Recently, it enhanced sustainability efforts by installing solar panels on the winery’s roof, reducing the environmental impact of its production. To preserve typicity and improve wine quality, the estate invests in research and development, carefully selects grape clusters, and implements practices like green harvesting. By monitoring vineyard health and soil nutrient needs, the estate ensures exceptional results, even in less favorable vintages.

Harvesting at Il Poggione is conducted entirely by hand, reflecting a commitment to tradition. Built in 2004, the modern winery not only offers precise temperature control during fermentation but also employs the “submerged cap” technique, thereby enhancing the concentration of natural colour compounds from the grape skins. For aging, the winery uses large French oak casks
