Since 2011, in the territory of Valdichiana Romana, Mario De Lisi and his wife Monica Antonini have taken over a modern cellar located in a nature reserve in Borgo Chianaiole, in the vicinity of Ficulle. They conduct vineyards in the nearby localities Sala, Santa Cristina and Olevole with the help of a qualified staff.
Mario and Monica invest in replanting old grape varieties, then giving birth to a project constantly watched by a professional association of agronomists and oenologist. They deal with the cultivation of vineyards by means of highly selective techniques aiming to a low yield of grape per hectare (30-60 hundred kilograms), reducing the use of pesticides.
