Cantina di Montalcino was founded in 1970 by a small group of winemakers. Many of their families still contribute their grapes, continuing to ensure the success of the winery. Their vineyards extend across the four quadrants and guarantee the production of great quality, characterful wines, vintage after vintage.

Cantina di Montalcino is located about 35km from Siena, right opposite the Sienese hilltop town of the same name, surrounded by meadows, olive trees and the beautiful vineyards of the Val di Cava, along the extraordinary Eroica route.
