You are literally delighted and captivated by the beauty and lush of the lands surrounding Tenuta Sette Ponti : 330 hectares of land, of which more than 50 planted with vineyards.
The vineyards of the estate don't have the mere presence of the best Sangiovese, but also some great "internationals", such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, along with a small selection of other varieties.
The soil composition also plays a determinant role in the quality of the wine, in Tenuta Sette Ponti it has a heterogeneous structure, well combined between clay, sand, limestone, and typical Chianti stone Galestro.
The vineyards are located at an altitude of about 300 meters above sea level.
