In 1997 Alberto Carnasciali and his wife Franca Buzzegoli bought a plot of land of about 18 hectares in the municipality of Magliano in Tuscany (Grosseto), in the Montiano village, with the intent to create a wine company in an area particularly suited for red wines, but not enhanced yet.
The company is placed at the edge of the Natural Park of Maremma on a hill facing south, south–west, with mainly sandy soils of limestone. Immediately after the purchase, the works on the land started, for the realization of vineyards, that are placed at an altitude that ranges from 150 m up to 260 m above sea level and cover an area of about 13 hectares, with a plant density of about 5,300 plants per hectare.
Corporate choices were based from the beginning to the creation of Morellino di Scansano, considered that the company is located in one of the most suited areas for the production of Morellino, devoting to it over 8 hectares of vineyard, while in the remaining part Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon are grown for the creation of PGI Maremma Toscana Cupinero. The goal of the company is to provide quality products. Therefore, all the choices of the business management go towards that direction: low production, manual management of the green, thinning of bunches.
