A family story in the heart of Montepulciano

The story of Cantine Dei began when Alibrando Dei identified an exceptional terroir in the Bossona area, destined for the production of great red wines. After the estate expanded in the 1970s with the acquisition of Villa Martiena and new vineyards, the family produced its first bottle of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano in 1985. Since then, three generations have followed, all sharing the same ambition: to reveal the full nobility of the Montepulciano terroirs through wines faithful to their origin.

The Great Terroirs of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano

The estate operates several iconic winery units, including Bossona, Martiena, La Piaggia, Cervognano, and La Ciarliana. Each vineyard benefits from specific geological and climatic characteristics that contribute to the complexity of the wines. This diversity of terroirs allows Cantine Dei to precisely express each plot and produce cuvées that reflect the full richness of the Montepulciano territory.

Prugnolo Gentile, the Soul of the Estate's Wines

Prugnolo Gentile, the local name for Sangiovese, forms the heart of Cantine Dei's identity. This historic grape variety produces wines that combine structure, finesse, and aging potential. The estate's emblematic wines, particularly the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and the Riserva Bossona, perfectly illustrate the terroir's ability to produce wines of great elegance while retaining a strong personality.

Architecture in service of wine and terroir

Beyond the quality of its wines, Cantine Dei is also renowned for its travertine cellar, designed as a true architectural masterpiece integrated into the Tuscan landscape. Conceived to respect the environment and optimize aging conditions, it demonstrates the estate's commitment to combining tradition, innovation, and respect for local heritage. This philosophy helps make Cantine Dei one of the leading ambassadors of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano worldwide.
