Le Forconate

Le Forconate is situated at the feet of Monte Cetona, between Valdichiana and Val d’Orcia, a little-known area that is producing excellent results. There are some 28 hectares of vineyards with Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Vermentino and… Sagrantino. At the estate they are putting the finishing touches on a new winery that will hold some 130 barriques and produce around 3,000hl of wine. The production style is modern, and there is no excess use of wood for the wines which are balanced and very well made.
