Imagine a magical place where the beauty of unspoilt nature reigns supreme. A place where you can find yourself far from the stress of the city, where every corner becomes an experience to be lived and where every experience becomes an unforgettable memory. This place is San Polo, a special place in the land of Montalcino, in the heart of the Tuscan countryside in Italy.
Here, amidst wineries, vineyards and splendid views, it is possible to savour the thousand facets of a truly unique terroir while enjoying the warm family hospitality typical of APANI® and establishing a symbiotic relationship with the surrounding nature. It is precisely from the interaction with the land that our wines are born, capable of putting man back in his rightful place in his relationship with nature, with the land, and with beauty itself.
Montalcino is a microcosm of stone houses adorned with the colourful banners of the quarters, steep steps, narrow medieval alleys that suddenly open onto breathtaking views. From the sturdy 14th-century fortress that dominates the town, the view embraces an area that hardly needs an introduction, for the beauty of its landscape, the fame of its wines and its thousand-year history. It is a succession of crags, dirt roads, wheat and sunflower fields, abbeys, villages and vineyards. Here Sangiovese reaches its maximum expression and gives life to Brunello.
San Polo covers a total of 22 hectares, 16 of which are planted with vines, 8 of which are used to produce Brunello. In the cellar, an admirable example of bio-architecture, conceived to minimise energy expenditure and environmental impact, the grapes are processed with artisanal care to enhance the finesse of the Sangiovese aromas.
