The Tollena estate is situated in the hills of San Gimignano, in an area where everything appears to aspire to excellence. The building in which the estate has its premises is an ancient historic residence of the nineteenth century, which has been completely renovated, maintaining the original architecture intact. The property extends over a total area of 66 hectares, comprising 16 hectares of vineyards, 6 hectares of olive groves, 27 hectares devoted to seed plots, with the remaining hectares cloaked in woodland. Here the present owners have organised the cellar in line with the most advanced vinification techniques, through a complete renovation of the premises and the equipment for the processing, storage and ageing of the wine. It is in these cellars that the wine comes to birth, is refined and acquires wisdom. Each year the estate produces 700 hl of wine and 15 hl of first-pressing extra-virgin olive oil, achieving a level of quality such as to satisfy even the most demanding palates.
