Set Amidst Scenic Hills, Olive Groves, and Vineyards

Quercia al Poggio is a family-owned winery nestled in the picturesque Tuscan countryside, located between Siena and Florence in Monsanto. This expansive estate spans hundreds of hectares and is conveniently situated near renowned wineries like Castello Della Paneretta and Isola e Olena. With 15 hectares of vineyards, the property features vines that thrive in both the Castellina area and the northern valley of Barberino Val d’Elsa.

A Winery with a Rich History

Founded in 1997 by Michela and Vittorio Rossi, Quercia al Poggio was originally a 19th-century farming settlement and Vallombrosa monastery. The Rossi family has lovingly renovated the estate, blending traditional winemaking practices with modern techniques. The winery also offers two residential options, Podere Cappella and Villa Proneta, each featuring four spacious apartments, a large swimming pool, and a tennis court, making it an ideal retreat for families.

Innovative Vineyard Practices

The vineyards at Quercia al Poggio are planted with a diverse selection of grapes, including high-quality Sangiovese, Ciliegiolo, Colorino, and Canaiolo, as well as Malvasia Nera and Malvasia Bianca. The combination of sun exposure and fertile terroirs results in vibrant, flavorful berries. Harvesting is done by hand, ensuring that only the finest bunches are selected for processing in the cellar.

We only visited some friends who were staying there some days. The atmosphere and the place are great. Really good wine as well! I would definitely stay here if I were planning to visit the area around.

I visited the farm for a wedding; we didn't stay overnight. The place is very beautiful, well worth a stay.

My wife and I had our wedding at Quercia Al Poggio in June. I don't think there are words for how wonderful an experience it was. The venue is literally a fairytale setting with spectacular views and grounds everywhere you look. We stayed for 3 nights and used the vendor they recommended for brunch and dinner (wedding was a different vendor), and the food was delicious plus the staff were exceptionally kind. The staff were super helpful throughout the stay, the owner was lovely and showed us around a bit with her cute dogs, the wine was some of the best I've ever had, the rooms were perfect, the pool was the center of our daily activities... really it was far beyond anything we could have hoped for. We were so lucky to find this place!

My wife and I only stopped for a wine tasting. We are traveling from Florence to the Siena area and we had a couple hours to explore. We chose to visit a nearby winery which was closed for lunch. Thus we came here. We did not have a reservation. Maria Grace kindly greeted us and said she would be happy to make us feel welcome. We hit the Jackpot, because the next 90 minutes we experienced not only some of the best wine we’ve ever had, but Maria’s spirit and kindness was so genuine. The wine. We are seasoned officianatos of American and French wine. This is our first visit to Italy. We’ve had Vin Santo many times. Quercia Al Poggio is easily the best Vin Santo and probably the best dessert wine we’ve experienced. Their Chianti Classico was delicious, but you must give it at least 10-20 minutes to open. I’m very much a critic of olive oil and as you know, it’s hard to find the freshest and purest of olive oil in the States. The olive oil here was so tasty and fresh. Wonderful experience. Comfortable setting even with the extreme heat today in this area. Spectacular views. We will come back and stay several nights. Thank you Maria Grace. May God always bless you.

We recently rented Quercia al Poggio for three nights to celebrate our wedding, and it was an absolutely perfect experience. From the moment we began searching for a venue, we knew this was the right place. The staff were incredibly helpful and responsive, which made the planning process smooth and stress-free. The property itself is breathtakingly stunning. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the beautiful surroundings and the warm, friendly atmosphere created by the entire staff. A highlight for many was the wine tasting offered to all our guests staying on the property, which kicked off our welcome dinner in the most delightful way. Everyone loved it! Michela, the owner, deserves special mention. She was incredible throughout the entire process and we hired her for day-of coordination. Michela's attention to detail and dedication ensured everything was perfect. Her efforts allowed us to fully enjoy our special day without any worries. Overall, Quercia al Poggio exceeded all our expectations as a wedding venue. The combination of the stunning location, exceptional staff, and Michela's outstanding coordination made our wedding unforgettable. We highly recommend Quercia al Poggio to anyone looking for a magical place to celebrate their special day.
