Profile


 
At only one mile from the center of Montepulciano, on the top of a hill far from the main road only the distance enough to avoide the noise of the traffic and surrounded by tidy vineyards of the famous VINO NOBILE DI MONTEPULCIANO, is located this beautiful farmhouse typical of the Tuscan Land who recently has been wonderfully restored.
 
"Between Art and Paradise". This certainly is the most appropriate way to describe the location of our farmhouse.
In fact
ORTAGLIA is casted towards the art of Montepulciano, with its roofs which show all the shades of garnet red, and the dome of San Biagio, third in the word for wideness and significance. On the same time the hill where the farmhouse stands out is plunged into the tranquillity and the charm of the tuscan countryside, muse of famous artists and poets.
 
On the top of this hill, between art and paradise, in the middle of seventeen century have been laid the foundations of the ORTAGLIA farmhouse. In these fifteen acres of Paradise together with our olive-trees, which give an intense and full bodied extra virgin olive oil, you will see thousands of smiling sunflowers greeting the sun rise of August.
 
If all that is not enough to inspire your hearts troubled by the images of the towns you just left, certainly our suggestive sunsets will do it. When the sun lies down on the horizon hugging the Mount Amiata, the ORTAGLIA dresses with a purple light and makes plays of shadows who remind mythological figures.
