About the Brand
Tenuta Col d'Orcia dates back to the 18th Century. The estate extends for 550 hectares on the southern hill slope of Montalcino. Col d’Orcia literally means the hill overlooking the Orcia River. The Orcia River marks the South West border of the Brunello di Montalcino territory and the name of the farm is intrinsically linked to the physical location were the vineyards are planted. It is the mission of Col d’Orcia to produce the best possible wines that the exceptional combination of soil and climate of this part of Montalcino can achieve.
