Tenuta San Giorgio in Montalcino (Siena) close by Castelnuovo dell'Abate and the Cistercian abbey of Sant' Antimo. The grapes grow at an average altitude of 350-450m above sea level on south west facing terrains. The soil is composed of clay loam sediments originating from a prehistoric salt lake-basin and is rich in calcium.
