Montenidoli

Montenidoli features in one journal article on this site.

High on the hills overlooking San Gimignano, Montenidoli is the soulful domain of Elisabetta Fagiuoli, the beloved matriarch of Tuscan viticulture. Since arriving in 1965, she has been a fierce pioneer of organic farming, cultivating vines on ancient, shell-studded Triassic soils. Montenidoli is the undisputed reference point for Vernaccia di San Gimignano, treating the historic white grape with the reverence usually reserved for serious red wines. Through prolonged skin contact and aging in concrete or neutral oak, her Vernaccias—like the iconic Tradizionale and Fiore—are intensely savory, textured, and vibrantly mineral, demanding years in the bottle to reveal their profound depth.
