The vines of the estate were planted on about 6 hectares, on the hills underneath the village Casale Marittimo, at about 200 m above sea level. The terroir where the vines are located is composed with sedimentary clays of the Pliocene; it is calcareous, poor in nitrogen and organical substances but rich in potassium, magnesium and assimilable calcium.

The vines have a Southern-East, Southern and Southern-West exposure with variable slopes.
The vineyards were planted partially in 1997 and partially in 1998. The Merlot vineyards are cultivated in the Nocera area of about 1,5 hectares; Cabernet Sauvignon in Casalvecchio of about 1,5 hectares and Sangiovese is located in a vineyard renamed Principe Guerriero on a surface of about 3,2 hectares.

The number of vinestocks per hectare is 5,600 for Merlot and Cabernet and about 6,500 for Sangiovese. The most prelevant grafts are Paulsen 1103 and SO4. The vines are trained on Guyot and the yield of grapes per hectare averages from 50 to 60 quintals.
The limited surface of the estate allows us to follow the vineyard conscientiously, with great care and intensive manwork in all its phases, from the budding up to the harvest, from the Spring pruning to the vine shoots and bunches thinning, where more manwork applied, more these cultural practices are effective. Manuring is very low and limited to organical substances and there’s no use of chemical herbicides.
From 2009 we are applying concepts and dayly rules for a "sustainable colture".
