Perched on the hill that shares its name in Montepulciano’s southern expanse, Poggio alla Sala stands as one of the historical production zones for Vino Nobile. The landscape unfolds with centuries-old oaks, cypress woods, enchanting vineyards, olive groves, and rustic farmhouses, crowned by a stately farm and villa higher up. This idyllic panorama encapsulates the quintessential beauty of Tuscany.

The special charm of Poggio alla Sala lies in its unique combination of soil composition, an ideal microclimate sculpted by surrounding hills, and the influence of the nearby Chiusi and Montepulciano lakes. Throughout the year, the gentle breezes from these lakes provide cooling respite to the grapes amid the summer heat and usher in mild temperatures during winter. Paired with our distinctive terroir, this harmonious blend forms the exceptional “recipe” of Poggio alla Sala, perfectly tailored for cultivating Prugnolo Gentile (Sangiovese), the principal grape that lends its character to our exceptional wines.
