Tenuta Buon Tempo lies in the extreme south of the Montalcino zone, surrounded by breathtaking countryside. The estate is in fact ‘embraced’ by the mountain range of the Tuscan Anti-Apennines (in which Monte Amiata towers above the rest) and by the Orcia river, the southern border of the Brunello appellation. Behind it lies the hill of Montalcino.

The absolute tranquility and sense of wellbeing felt by the current owners inspired them when choosing a name for it: it simply had to be called “Tenuta Buon Tempo”.

Tenuta Buon Tempo covers 28 hectares, of which 14 are under vine. Ever since they arrived, the new owners have believed strongly in agriculture that is sustainable and preserves their precious soils and the environment that surrounds the estate.

It is in line with this ideal that they took the decision, right from start, to cultivate the vineyards organically, and the first vintage so certified will be the 2021. Their motives for taking this direction are ethical, production-related, but also have to do with quality.
