TENUTA SAN PIETRO PIEMONTE, ITALY

Tenuta San Pietro lies in the village of Tassarolo along Piedmont’s hilly southern stretches and just a short distance from the Ligurian coast. The property covers a total area of 247 acres of which 86 are mainly planted with Cortese di Gavi. The remaining part is occupied by meadows and oak and acacia woods that protect numerous species of wild animals. The estate benefits from its high-altitude vineyards, cooling winds from the nearby Ligurian Sea, and top-notch exposures that produce excellent white wines that are at once savory, full, and fresh.  All the vineyards of Tenuta San Pietro are certified organic and cultivated according to the criteria of biodynamic agriculture.
