The various vineyards form part of the denominations of Nobile di Montepulciano and Chianti Colli Senesi.
At Marcianella Estate the olive groves contain a particular tree: the “minuto”, whose tiny olives have a low yield of fragrant, high-quality olive oil.
The soils of Marcianella tell a story millions of years old. From the Cretaceous (80 million years ago) to the Pliocene Epoch (3 million), the terrains were formed by deposits of sand, clay and silt on the bottom of the sea. These soils express their unique composition through wines acting as spokespersons and custodians of history and origins.
