In 1989, Piero Palmucci, a great wine lover, founded the Fattoria Poggio di Sotto on the southern slopes of the Montalcino hill, an ideal terroir for the cultivation of Sangiovese. The company covers 32 hectares, 12 of which are used as vineyards and registered in the Brunello di Montalcino register, while the rest are olive groves and woods.
The wine-growing region of the Euganean Hills, protected by Monte Amiata on one side and exposed to sea winds on the other, has an ideal microclimate for grape ripening and an altitude ranging from 200 to 400 meters.
