Laying on the green hills of Tuscany, between Florence and Arezzo, Tenuta la Pineta was founded in 1985 by Giuseppe Scortecci, who had been captivated by the fascinating landscape and the possibility to create a hunting estate.
The estate covers 110 hectares: 9 in vineyards, 4 in olive grove, 10 for sowing, and the rest in wood.
Our hilly lands are at an average height of 300 meters above sea level, and each growing is located on the best soil and microclimate, in order to get maximum quality products.
The vineyard is completely surrounded and secured by forest. Albeit recently renewed, it has been growing in the same place for decades, and is perfectly adapted to the soil and weather conditions.
Our philosophy
The achievement of high quality products is the daily aim of our philosophy.
A wise mixture of tradition and innovation pairs with the love for our own land, which has characterized the Scortecci family for generations. Both the vine and the olive are particularly suitable to our lands, and thus allow us to obtain products that are the typical and genuine expression of our territory.
LITTLE IS NICE: Wine, olive oil and honey are all produced in limited quantity. Hence, each and every product can enjoy our total care and yield top-notch quality. Tenuta la Pineta is a little boutique-farm, where the owners – supported by a skilled staff and motivated by genuine passion – channel all their enthusiasm and address all their attentions to vineyards, olive groves and hives.
