Sorano

In the southern hills of Grosseto, the sparsely populated Tuscan commune of Sorano—home to fewer than 3,000 residents—nurtures some of Italy's most localized viticultural treasures. This rugged terrain shapes the distinctive character of Sovana DOC, a red wine appellation limited to just three municipalities, and the neighboring Bianco di Pitigliano DOC. Across its volcanic soils, Sorano yields 18 protected denominations. This ancient agricultural heritage is preserved by 3 verified local producers, including 1 estate that opens its cellar doors to international visitors seeking authentic Tuscan viticulture.
