The Piombaia farm was born from the union of two families: The Rossi from Montalcino and The Cantini from Pisa.
In the fifth generation of the Rossi-Cantini family, the brothers Vittorio, Francesco and Cecilia manage the family business, choosing since 2008 to apply the principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture that have completely revolutionized the way of living and working on the farm: no more the use of synthetic fertilizers, chemical pesticides or large agricultural machines but the rediscovery of the rhythms of nature, the passage of time and the choice to let horses run freely around the vineyard used as natural herbicides.

Description of the wine tasting:
Our tours are a wonderful journey into the world of Piombaia that will activate your five senses. You will start with the view and immerse yourself in the breathtaking view of the vineyard: each tour in fact opens with the presentation of the characteristics of the vines, the blend, the growth process and the biodynamic method that has become our philosophy of life.
You will get to know our horses that roam freely in the vineyard and you will discover what is the fundamental role they play. Continuing with the touch between the rows, the vine leaves and the berries, you will touch the fruit of the earth from which everything is born, you will know the life cycle of the vineyard and how from the vine turns into wine. The tour continues with a visit to the cellar where you will discover the entire winemaking process and where our wines refine inside the barrels: by bringing your ear closer to the wood, your hearing will enjoy the sound of the wine resting placidly waiting to be bottled. We will then move to the agriturism where you can awaken your sense of smell and taste with a tasting of our products accompanied by a selection of appetizers.
