La Poderina is located in Montalcino, in Castelnuovo dell'Abate, an area known for the particular elegance and balance of its grapes.

Thanks to a company philosophy that believes in innovation at the service of tradition, La Poderina wines are matured in French oak barriques and large casks. In addition, high-quality training systems are adopted in the vineyard with yields of 60 quintals per hectare, well below the 80 quintals the specifications allow.

The Brunello wine is produced in two versions: "Poggio Abate" Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG and Brunello di Montalcino DOCG. La Poderina also produces Rosso di Montalcino DOC and Moscadello di Montalcino DOC.
