Poggio Assiolo (in English:
Scops-Owl Hill) is so-called by the name of the homonymous bird whose love song delights us, at night, for many months of the year. The farm is located in Cupi area, in the neighbourhoods of the Parco Naturale della Maremma, at the altitude of approximately 160 meters. Grandfather Brasildo with his family cultivated this land from 1949 to 1960 as sharecropper, then, after the agrarian reform and the land redistribution to peasants families, as owner.
The farm is placed in an absolutely uncontaminated and wild territory, consisting of forests, pastures and natural hedges; this landscape has been preserved adopting a nearly maintenance agricultural model.
The family has always cultivated grape and oil and raised cattle, but new generations have intensified mainly winemaking activity: new vineyards have been implanted following rules that impose a qualitative model of production, through the use of native vineyards and with a middle-high density of the grape plants.
The agricultural company owns biological certification.
