Rocky limestone with alberese and galestro rock
Cellar
Poderi del Paradiso spreads out in an amphitheatre of vineyards at the foot of San Gimignano and boasts about thirty hectares under vine, producing, with the precious advice of oenologist Paolo Caciorgna, more than 150 thousand bottles a year. Although they are very fond of Vernaccia di San Gimignano, which they produce in numerous versions, the company is a convinced experimenter with the San Gimignano terroir. Since the early 1980s, it has planted in its vineyards, alongside traditional vines such as Vernaccia and Sangiovese, also Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc, Merlot, Syrah, and Chardonnay.
