Montevertine is located in the heart of the Chianti hills, in the Municipality of Radda in Chianti, 425 m of altitude.
The locality was, for sure, peopled since the eleventh century. There are still traces of the original construction, for defense, of course, lately transfromed into a farmhouse.
Montevertine was purchased in 1967 by Sergio Manetti, steel manufacturer, as holiday home. He restored the house to make it habitable. Soon, two hectares of vineyard were planted and a small winery was set up, with the idea to produce some wine for friends and customers.
