Doga delle Clavule has an excellent position for vine growing. The estate spreads out over a hilly region, the vineyards spread out for ca. 60 hectares including 20 for Morellino, 7 for Bianco Toscana i.g.t.
and the remaining for Rosso Toscana i.g.t.
Soils are mainly sedimentary with some examples of neo-native loose soil, deriving from marine deposits of Pliocene origin. The proximity of Mount Amiata creates perfect climatic conditions: vineyards are protected from cold north winds and mitigated by sea breezes. This also reduces the possibility of disease to the vine to a minimum level. Generally, harvesting starts mid August for white grapes, whereas red grapes are harvested as from the end of August and for all the month of September.
