Poderi di San Pietro, built at the seat of the former Agricultural Consortium of San Colombano, in 1998, was taken over by the Neuroniagrari company in 2008.
With its 75 hectares of land, of which about 65 cultivated with vines, and a production volume of 4,500 hectoliters of wine a year, the company is a representative of the wine excellence for the whole district and province of Milan.
In its wine cellar of over 4,000 square meters, including 2,000 square meters underground for the barriques, an intelligent technology is used: all tanks are made of steel, heat–conditioned and saturated with nitrogen. The fining of the wine, then, continues into oak barrels until full ripeness.
But to make wines unforgettable and to make them the best expression of the territory, Poderi di San Pietro has the valuable collaboration of Donato Lanati, an oenologist of international fame.
Poderi di San Pietro, in addition to Vineyards, Winery and a Wine Shop, has also space for wine tastings and events: from the Wine Shop to the Caveau of Barriquerie to the Party Hall, all special places for unconventional events.
But, the current estate, wishing to develop the full potential of this extraordinary territory, wanted the company to be not only winemaking, but also a place of rest and leisure to appreciate the natural and cultural beauty of this area. To respond to this desire, the Trianon farmhouse inn and the La Palazzina Country Club, an oasis of peace surrounded by green vineyards of Poderi di San Pietro.
The Trianon farmhouse inn, a romantic petit chateau, of just 12 rooms, is the perfect place to relax, or for special events. La Palazzina Country Club is a pleasant place to spend the summer with large green areas, two swimming pools, a sandy beach, equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas, soccer fields, tennis courts, beach volleyball court.
Poderi San Pietro is a complete and attentive to the environment company. In effect, recently is has also invested in a photovoltaic system that allows substantial energy savings in all its activities of winemaking.
Growing vines and making wine is not a job like any other, but a form of respect, curiosity and enthusiasm for that wonder of creation that is vine. Only through a rigorous care, a continuous research and the desire to improve, one can sip a wine that is truly a gift of this land.
And this is the mission of Poderi di San Pietro.
