Following this trail, we ended up on Mount Amiata, a 1750 metre volcano dating back to the Pleistocene era which has been dormant for 180,000 years, where there are very few vineyards. It wasn\u2019t easy: we were looking for cold weather, snow and temperature excursions; we needed altitude, but this alone was not enough to produce wines of great personality and texture. And so we went in search of a matrix of calcareous rock with fractured geological stratification, with which the vine of Dionysius could blend organically and inorganically.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7fe0cfe elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-items-stretch elementor-reverse-tablet elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default sc_fly_static\" data-eae-slider=\"95476\" data-id=\"7fe0cfe\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0c01e90 sc_inner_width_1_2 sc-mobile_inner_width_none sc-tablet_inner_width_none sc_content_align_inherit sc_layouts_column_icons_position_left sc_fly_static elementor-invisible\" data-eae-slider=\"93217\" data-id=\"0c01e90\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7ec229f sc_layouts_hide_on_wide sc_layouts_hide_on_desktop sc_fly_static elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"7ec229f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-643a4e3 sc_fly_static elementor-widget elementor-widget-trx_sc_title\" data-id=\"643a4e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"trx_sc_title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div\t\tclass=\"sc_title sc_title_default\" ><h1 class=\"sc_item_title sc_title_title sc_item_title_style_default sc_item_title_tag\"\n\t\t\t><span class=\"sc_item_title_text\">terroir<\/span><\/h1><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bbe3448 elementor-hidden-laptop sc_layouts_hide_on_notebook sc_layouts_hide_on_tablet sc_fly_static elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"bbe3448\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a08552a sc_fly_static elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a08552a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">600 metres above sea level on the mountain\u2019s western flank, we set up our <b>base<\/b> in a small village called Poggioferro, planting 3.6 hectares of Sangiovese and 0.9 hectares of Cabernet, divided into 5 lots on the basis of soil geology. We clearly remember the first words we exchanged the day we came across this vineyard:\u00a0\u201c<b><i>Unbelievable! It\u2019s like being in the Clos de B\u00e8ze\u201d<\/i><\/b><i>.\u00a0<\/i>Before us was a carpet of carbonate rock and limestone, resting on a coffee-coloured marl that could just be glimpsed through the skeletal soil of the surface. We had no doubts about it: if we ever decided to make a red wine, this would be the place.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">But we couldn\u2019t stop here, because our instinct told us to try a white wine too, of the kind we like. We headed toward the peak of Monte Amiata, on the edges of the beech forest at an altitude of 800 metres, where the last seed crops had been abandoned decades ago and we could see that the marks made by the volcano were even more evident. This was a huge leap in geological eras, with a rare well-ventilated and gently sloping plateau marking the boundary between farms that had been abandoned for years and the mountain forests that still cover the peak. Loose, well-drained soil, in grey, black and blue, abounding in sand and volcanic silicates mixed with <i>tischio,<\/i>\u00a0a scale like a little fragment of marl, typical of the area. Virgin land with a content of organic matter that was unimaginable lower down in the hills, a pH that has been neutralised over the millennia, and carbonates giving way to a great wealth of minerals, ranging from calcium to magnesium, manganese, iron, zinc and more. This is where we decided to plant our vineyards and make the white wine of our dreams.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element

It occurred very slowly, with production of solid-semisolid eruptive material that primarily poured along the flank of the mountain in the form of lava flows, though there may also have been violent episodes also involving the mountain\u2019s other slopes.<br \/>The slowness of this volcanic activity would seem to have resulted in major accumulation of heavy, dense material, generating eruptions which may sometimes have been destructive and explosive in nature; in the beech groves near the mountain peak, huge boulders up to 4 or 5 metres in diameter may be found, which were expelled and slid in all directions.<br \/>When all the seismic and volcanic activity that led to the emergence of Mount Amiata and the expulsion of volcanic material was taking place, the area was already rich in Flysch (sedimentary marine deposits, primarily calcareous and limey-clayey in nature), which was powerfully deformed when the mountain rose higher, pushed by plates in the earth\u2019s crust, creating a variety of fracture lines, some of which were later covered with lava.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-032baa8

locally known as <i>tischio<\/i>, containing a high concentration of silt, combines calcareous rocks (calcilutites or fine-grained limestone) with fractions of clay and silt deposited on an ancient sea bed.\u00a0Soil analysis revealing a high content of iron and manganese suggests that it may have been subject to interference with volcanic material; while the low carbonate content found on the fine earth, primarily in the form of active limestone, and its almost neutral pH suggest that these very ancient soils (65 million years old) may have suffered gradual leaching.\u00a0At the same time, high calcium content and a wealth of calcareous sediments remind us that this was once the bottom of the sea. The limestone in these soils is in fact not found in the fine earth fraction, but in sediments which can simply be hewn and pulverised to observe a basic acidic reaction when treated with acid, due to the carbonates trapped in these rocks.\u00a0The type of marine sedimentation may vary greatly depending on the type of sea, depth, temperature, currents, the relief of the sea bed, affluents, and so on,\u00a0giving rise to compressed materials which are more or less dense and compact. The Flysch in the Pescina area was most likely generated as a result of rapid sedimentation, during which various deposits accumulated one upon another without densifying too much, hypothetically due to marine currents; the silica and carbonates which cement the sediments work differently depending on the physical conditions of the sea bed. The physical condition of the rocks in this place is reminiscent of marl, that is, flaky rock, but should not be confused with schists, which, while physically similar, are metamorphic, not sedimentary rocks, generated by material under high temperatures.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c58a2e

the most of a completely different terroir which has had a slower, more recent genesis, with only minor volcanic interference.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Here too, calcareous rock forms a part of the geological Flysch formations, but it is very different from the sediments of the vineyards higher up; emersion at this elevation took place more recently, under different physical conditions producing a completely different result.<br \/>The soil at Poggioferro is a darker coffee-colour due to the greater content of brown clays and iron carbonates, referred to as greyish-brown argillite, which may in certain microzones give rise to very deep soils as a result of colluvial phenomena. This is still very different from the clays of the Pliocene, and the carbonates are still large and dense, ranging from greyish blue palombino limestone to more or less pure calcite\u00a0\u00a0crystals, which should not be confused with quartzites, in which the principal mineral is silica.<br \/>In the Poggioferro area, the soil has a sub-alkaline pH and consists of 8 to 15 % active limestone, continuing to drain well despite the more evident clayey fraction which, however, consists of well-structured high-CSC clays, which give our Sangiovese wines their touch of

be detected, while at other times a flaky clayey mass may be seen which is similar to the famous \"scaly clays\"; these differences translate into soils in which the skeleton consists of larger, denser limestones, as in the Poggioferro area, or scaly sediments containing varying amounts of clay, as in Pescina. In both of these sediments, the sedimentation environment was marine pelagic (maximum depth of the sea bed 200m, with enough light for marine
