Set in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma, surrounded by woodlands, vineyards, olive groves and mountain streams, with spectacular views and untouched landscapes,  Le Pianore Villa and Organic Wine Farm is a protected area and a nature refuge recognized by the National Parks Committee.  The farm is located in Monticello Amiata, a small village perched on the foothills of the dormant volcano and sacred mountain of Monte Amiata, regarded as mount Olympus by the ancient Etruscan people.

Le Pianore farmhouse, owned and managed by the Micillo family since 1990, is born out of Elena and Francesco’s collective dream, and today is run by their children Enrica, Laura, and Filippo. 
The latter, Filippo, guides the cultivation of the vines and the winemaking process. Enrica and Laura focus their efforts on the areas dedicated to tourism and products, such as incredible herbal teas, essential oils of lavender and Saint John’s Wort as well as many aromatic balms. These days, Elena primarily dedicates herself to the vegetable garden, while the family and guests of the estate enjoy the freshest vegetables, made into preserves for the winter.

About 30 hectares of the estate are made up of woods rich in centuries-old oak trees and wildlife. The remaining land is used to produce olive oil, wine, fodder and vegetables.
In addition, Le Pianore is also a certified organic farm, and 80% of  its energy comes from renewable sources such as photovoltaic and thermo-hydraulic solar panels, while central heating is run solely on local wood. 

With complete self-sufficiency of energy and food, the new green architecture projects, the bio-lake and the incredible paths through the woods and along the streams, Le Pianore’s vision is to be an eco-village for future generations that will find an heavenly corner of the world where life is lived in complete harmony with nature.
