The term "Col d'Orcia" refers to the hill that overlooks the Orcia River. The Orcia River runs through the region of Brunello di Montalcino, and the farm's name is inextricably related to the actual place where the vines are grown. Col d'Orcia's purpose is to make the greatest wines possible from the remarkable mix of land and climate in this region of Montalcino.

The palate is sophisticated and well-structured, as well as rich and persistent. has prominent fruit flavours, a lengthy and sapid finish, and noticeable tannins The ripe, soft tannins are wonderfully balanced by the acidity, resulting in a lengthy, pleasant, and flavourful aftertaste.
