The 4.5-hectare property sits at 520 meters above sea level and has a magnificent view of Monte Amiata. Podernovone’s soil is comprised of calcareous-marl and schist, which reflects light and heat, leading to a warmer site. “Le Chiuse di Sotto” on the other hand is a 2.5-hectare plot that’s cool and airy, bringing bright acidity do the blend.
