Croce di Febo

Croce di Febo is Silvia Vincenti’s wine estate in Montepulciano, Tuscany. Its Amore label is dedicated to her mother, Maria Russo.

The estate cultivates just over four hectares across two vineyards with nine different soils, whose clay, limestone and varied rock content offer different possibilities for Sangiovese. Vigna La Pietra, in Pieve di Valardegna, faces southeast at 470 metres above sea level, with calcareous clay soil, sandstone and fossils, while Vigna Cappuccini, in Pieve di S. Albino, faces north at 520 metres, with calcareous clay soil, dolomite, travertine and granite. The vineyards are farmed biodynamically, following lunar and astral rhythms. Its wines include Amore and Metodo Classico.
