Our story begins in the second half of the 19th century, when our forefather Giuseppe Tiberini was commissioned to lead the vineyards and the cellar of an important Montepulciano family, starting a path handed down to each subsequent generation until 1961 when Gino Tiberini bought Podere Le Caggiole from this noble family.
For 7 generations we have lived and worked in Montepulciano, which has the privilege of having lands, microclimates, history and culture of unparalleled possibilities.
With these convictions our family wanted to express the secrets of our wines, in a small territory of just 12 hectares, in Le Caggiole, where the cultivation of vines has been present since the time of the Roman Empire.
UA place where our work commitment is so important, totally addressed to the utmost respect and protection for its natural integrity and biological survival.
Only by respecting this purity, rationality and harmony that nature has given us in this small territory, could we succeed in having such an unrepeatable character in the wines of Podere Le Caggiole.

REVIEW
stephen lucas 6 recensioni·2 foto⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My mother and I showed up unannounced and Nunzie, our host, spent hours with us explaining the wine and history of the winery. Also got to meet the owner Luca whose winery has been in his family for 7 generations and you can hear us love and passion for his wine in the stories he tells. Not enough stars to recommend!

This was the wine experience to top all experiences. Picked up by Niccolò from my accommodation, I went for lunch at the family’s lovely vineyard, cooked by the wonderful Luca – who trained in a Michelin starred restaurant no less! We tried the full range of Tiberini wine while talking wine, life, vines, soil and more over lunch. After Niccolò gave me a tour of the vineyard and the cellars before dropping me home. What a day – thanks to everyone for this!
