THE MAKER: Montevertine
Montevertine was bought in 1967 by Sergio Manetti, then a steel industrialist, as a holiday home. He restored the house making it habitable and immediately planted two hectares of vineyard and set up a small cellar with the idea of producing some wine for his friends and customers.
