A contemporary winery set within a Roman archaeological site, offering wine tastings and event spaces among ancient olive trees and classical ruins.
At a glance
Cantina Pieve Vecchia combines modern winemaking with heritage conservation. The estate occupies land rich in Roman history, where visitors encounter both contemporary viticulture and archaeological remains spanning nearly two millennia.
History
The property sits atop a Roman archaeological site dating to classical antiquity. Among its surviving features is a Roman cistern, evidence of the site’s long occupation and resource management practices in the ancient period.
What you see
The winery building itself reflects modern design principles—sober, refined, and functionally oriented toward wine production. The grounds preserve multiple distinct areas: a garden with ancient olive trees positioned near the Roman cistern, a second garden adjacent to a stone villa, and a swimming pool overlooking the surrounding valley. These spaces create layered environments where contemporary comfort meets archaeological context.
Cultural significance
The site represents an intersection of agricultural heritage and classical archaeology. By maintaining its Roman remains visible to visitors, Cantina Pieve Vecchia preserves tangible evidence of settlement and land use patterns from antiquity while continuing the tradition of viticulture in Tuscany.
