Podere Montale is a young winery with a vision rooted in authenticity, community, and a deep connection to the land. Founded in July 2014, Podere Montale saw its true beginning with the first harvest of the 2015 vintage, marking the start of a journey that continues to evolve. Our mission is to establish a vineyard that serves as a proud emblem for the community of Seggiano and the Montecucco denomination. Nestled in a territory rich in character, Podere Montale seeks to enhance both the geographical and social value of this captivating and somewhat mysterious land. Through sustainable growth and mutual improvement, we strive to honor and uplift the region we call home.

LaNascosta is a wine producing estate located at the outskirt of the medieval village of Castiglione d’Orcia, in the southern part of the Siena Province in Tuscany. It is positioned in a territory particularly suited for viniculture, at a bird view of Montalcino and Montepulciano, two of the most renown wine producing areas in Italy. Dominated by the Monte Amiata extinct Vulcan, the Estate faces the southern slopes of the Val D’Orcia. Although it is located at a walking distance of Castiglione D’Orcia, La Nascosta is invisible from the village, of which its name, meaning “The Hidden”. The Nascosta cellar is embedded in the hillside, with a long façade of stones coming from rocks extracted from the vineyard fields, combined with Corten panels and a garden cover. Fully integrated in the landscape, the cellar confirms the name of La Nascosta as the “Hidden” Estate. Consistent with the different varieties, the grapes are separately treated and aged in steel and cement vats or in tonneaux (micro-vinification). Using the modern technologies, such as full temperature and humidity control, and careful and continuous professional follow-up, the wines are accompanied in their evolution to achieve the highest quality end-product.
