From this winery
  • Hectares: 20
Located at 365 m a.s.l. on the South-East side of Montalcino, La Palazzetta with 20 hectares of vineyards and 2500 olive trees dominates the magnificent view of the Abbey of Sant'Antimo. The production of Rosso di Montalcino DOC, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Sant'Antimo Rosso DOC and extra-virgin olive oil increase the value of the local area and preserve what comes every year from Nature. Not extremely cold winters, hot summers, rainy and humid springtimes and autumns create in these limestone and rocky lands very fragrant wines with intense colors and pleasant acidity and tannins. The natural principles of cultivation and production will receive the organic certification starting with the harvest of 2018.

The Wine Journal awarded the following wines in 2022:

- Brunello di Montalcino 2017: 92/100

- Brunello di Montalcino 'Visconti' 2017: 93/100
