A panoramic Maremma agriturismo estate crafting Morellino di Scansano.
Podere l'Aione is a 30-hectare estate near the medieval hill town of Scansano, in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma, with panoramic views over the coastline, Monte Argentario and the Tuscan Archipelago. The property traces its name to an ancient settlement that once gave its name to the road linking the Scansano hills to the coast, and was restored in 2002 with the planting of vineyards, olive groves and orchards. Today it operates as an agriturismo with eleven guest rooms, a restaurant celebrating Maremma cuisine, and an on-site enoteca. Its Morellino di Scansano DOCG and Vermentino are joined by small-production reds such as Etico, a Merlot-led blend that has been reviewed by Wine Enthusiast, reflecting the estate's commitment to expressing the sun-soaked, mineral-rich terroir of the Maremma.
