The "
Tenimenti Ricci " Estate located in Sant'Angelo
in Colle near Montalcino is one of the older and more traditional
rural establisments in this area of Brunello production .
Nowadays Ferruccio Ricci and his sister
Ida manage it recreating the deep-rooted family traditions.
Notwithstanding its ancient pedigree , the estate is now managed
in a modern and youthful way but always faithful to the
Montalcinese tradition.
The cellar has been recently restored and equipped with temperature
conditioning rooms. There, the wine is made, aged in barrels
made in slovanian oak and then
bottle.
Near the cellar you can visit the office and the tasting room
where you can see old wine equipment belonging to the
Ricci Family, testimony of their great interest in grapes
and wine.
The wineyards cover about 12 hectares
concentrating on the sangiovese
grape and they are planted in a privileged position on
the hill nearthe medieval village and down to the plain towards
the river Orcia
