Winery

The Tenuta Podernovo winery completes the unique experience of a farm holiday in Tuscany

The Tenuta Podernovo – the wine estate - speaks of a love for this land, strong enough to drive the Lunelli family, who have run the Ferrari wineries for three generations, to direct their passion and conviction to the creation of elegant, intense red wines.

The Tenuta Podernovo winery complements the unique experience of a holiday in Tuscany, where the views, tastes and fragrances work together to offer guests a dream holiday that engages all the senses.

Holidaying in Tuscany and savouring the Italian lifestyle also means getting to know its wine culture and tasting some of Tuscany’s finest wines, Teuto and Aliotto, which are produced on the estate.

Two great Tuscan wines, the fruit of a family’s passion and traditions

Separated from the farmhouse by a garden, the Tenuta Podernovo winery has a symbiotic relationship with the land, reflected in its exposed stone walls.

Here, in a fascinating setting, the Lunelli family watch over as the structure and character of two great Tuscan wines, Teuto and Aliotto, mature in highest quality barrels for the delight of lovers of fine wines.

Accompanied by an expert guide, visitors to the Casale Podernovo listen to a fascinating story from grape to wine and end their visit with a tasting of Teuto, Aliotto and Auritea.

Guided visits to the cellar with tasting are available:

Aliotto

A superb blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet and Merlot grapes grown in the Tenuta Podernovo’s vineyards in the heart of the Pisan Hills. Owned by the Lunelli family, the vineyards are currently undergoing conversion to organic cultivation.

Aliotto was the name of a prince, who was lord of the Colle Pisane in the Middle Ages

The wine’s aroma has fruity, mineral notes, it has a good structure and is pleasantly rounded on the palate.

Teuto

Teuto is one of the finest wines made almost exclusively from Sangiovese Toscano grapes. The grapes are cultivated in the Boscogrande and Ginestra vineyards at Podernovo, one of the Lunelli family’s estates in the Pisan Hills, currently undergoing conversion to organic cultivation.
The wine is named after a northern European people, the Teutons, who conquered these lands during the third and fourth centuries AD.

The wine has a wide array of elegant aromas, ranging from plum to blackberry and sweet spices

It is rich in the mouth with fine tannins and a well-balanced, persistent structure.

Auritea

Auritea, made from 100% Cabernet Franc, represents the summit of Tenute Lunelli’s production in Tuscany.

Crafted with grapes from the “Olmo” Vineyard of the Podernovo estate, the wine matures for 18 months in French oak barriques and then for a further 12 months in bottle. Like all the wines from Podernovo, Auritea is made from organic grapes.
