Podere Forte
Pasquale Forte has a passion. The land. It is a passion with time-honoured origins; his Calabrian parents had land, vines and olive groves. He purchases the then abandoned estate called Podere Petrucci, in 1997, renaming it Podere Forte.
Podere Forte extends for a total of 168 hectares in Castiglione d’Orcia. 19 hectares are planted with vineyards, 12 of which are in production, 23 are olive groves and 70 are forest. The remaining hectares are distributed between pastures, livestock, and gardens. Another 110 hectares of arable land are located in the town of San Quirico d’Orcia. This means the company has 278 hectares of land in total.
The vines are planted at altitudes that vary between 350 and 521 meters above sea level. The vines benefit from constant, fresh ventilation.
Podere Forte is a Demeter-certified (Biodynamic) estate winery in the Castiglione d’Orcia in the Orcia DOC of south-east Tuscany.
