The Farm was born round the house built, as a hunting lodge, by the Count Carlo de Vecchi in 1862. Donated to the Church, it became the Bishop of Montalcino 's summer residence.
In 1982 the present owners came into possession of it, and during the following years they have given life to a little farm, above all managed by the women of the family, devoted to research of the quality of product.
They planted the first hectare in 1989.

Now the Farm has two hectares planted with Brunello and it is going to plant the third one; besides the next year 6000 meters are planting with Merlot.
Some vineyards are located around the house and other ones in Castelnuovo dell'Abate area.
