Acquired recently by the Mazzei family, the estate, with its 30 hectares (74 acres) of vineyards, has already become one of the most important wine producers in the Morellino di Scansano zone. The exposure, entirely to the south-southwest, the nature of the terrain, which is dry and stony, and the exceptional microclimate, which benefits from the proximity to the sea, are all highly favorable factors which assure Belguardo's capacity to reach high quality levels and make the estate one of the zone's reference point wineries.
