Begin your ride in the center of Castiglione della Pescaia. After a short ride, leave the town behind and cycle along calm country roads that lead into the typical landscape of the Maremma with its olive groves, sunflower fields, and vineyards.
Follow a flat itinerary to arrive at your destination: the Antinori winery of Le Mortelle. After a short tour inside the estate, surrounded by vineyards and fruit-bearers, take a break on the estate's terrace, sitting under mulberry trees and tasting a glass of wine and the organic fruit produced by the estate.
Learn about the history of the Le Mortelle farm, which was part of a larger complex called La Badiola, already identified on the geographical maps by Leopoldo Il in the mid-1800s. Mortella is the name of the wild myrtle that characterizes these coastal areas and is the symbol of the farm: its name derives from this fragrant Mediterranean shrub.
