Tenuta Golo

Tenuta Golo is a boutique winery a few kilometers from the center of Montepulciano, located in the area of ​​Cervognano, considered to be one of the best areas for the production of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano wine.

The winery is owned by Irish/Indian couple, Niall & Paari O'Toole. Both Niall and Paari are corporate lawyers who previously worked in Dubai, who moved to Tuscany, Italy in 2020 (bang in the middle of the pandemic!), to realize their dream of owning an agriturismo and winery in Montepulciano. They now have a team of six (including them) working full time at the estate, and they welcome guests from all over the world to their winery and agriturismo.

Tenuta Golo has 6 hectares of vineyards and approximately 250 olive trees. The vineyards are arranged in a 360° circle around the property with exposures to the East, North and South. Our soils are medium texture, mainly clay. We enjoy an elevation of between 200 and 300m above sea level. We use a spurred cord training system for our vines. Our oldest vineyard (just less than one hectare) is 70 years old and the remaining vineyards have an average age of between 17 to 20 years.

Our grape varieties include Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. We harvest and select the best grapes by hand when our grapes are ready. This is usually, depending on the year, towards the end of September.

Our typical production is about 30,000 bottles per year divided between Rosso di Montepulciano DOC, Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG and an IGT Toscana Red.

At Tenuta Golo we are focused on respecting and protecting our territory and the environment. We are committed to sustainable production. We aim to create authentic but at the same time modern and contemporary wines. Wines which reflect the uniqueness of our vineyard and the different cultures within our company.
