Val D’Orcia is located up high between two mountains like a big bowl of blue clay; beyond the lands, the mountains descend quickly to the sea or in the deep valleys of the interior.
The air twirls with temperatures that are more harsh than all those of the rest of Central Italy, the rains fall out the edges of the "bowl" and the weather turns around.
It is an advantage to make wine in the strangeness of the climate because vines behave in a distorted manner and wines are amazing.
Those arriving in a desert and virgin place like Val D’Orcia, finds powerful images that come out from nameless forces.
A vinegrower can woo these pictures for years without ever understand them at all, but in the meantime he transmits a unique style to his wines.
