The Agricultural Estate La Calonica was founded in 1973 by the Cattani family who still supervises directly its production and sales. It covers about 45 hectares on the border of the provinces of Siena and Arezzo, on a crest between the Municipalities of Montepulciano and Cortona. The domaine is situated near “Le Capezzine”, in the centre of one of the most prestigious wine regions. The vineyards with their rather clayey soils are located at optimal altitudes with excellent sun exposure. Thanks to the influence of the Trasimeno Lake, the vines benefit from mild winters and not too dry summers and a regular vegetative cycle.
