What started as a short stay became a life-changing encounter with the landscape, rural culture and a slower, more authentic rhythm of life.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image tdg-story-photo\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large has-custom-border\" style=\"max-width:520px;margin-top:34px;margin-right:auto;margin-bottom:44px;margin-left:auto\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/giorgio.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/alberto-giorgio-maja-evento-vino-terre-di-giorgio.jpg\" alt=\"Alberto Giorgio and Maja wearing Terre di Giorgio caps at a wine event\" style=\"border-radius:8px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-b8674ed5 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-bottom:44px\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:38%\">\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border tdg-story-portrait\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/giorgio.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/terre-di-giorgio-web-396.jpg\" alt=\"Alberto Giorgio, Terre di Giorgio\" style=\"border-radius:8px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:62%\">\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px;line-height:1.65\">Alberto grew up in Calabria, combining his studies and sport with long days outdoors. Engineering taught him the value of method, research and innovation; working with the land taught him patience, practical judgement and respect for knowledge passed down through generations. Together, these influences shaped Terre di Giorgio: a farm that brings contemporary expertise and tradition together while retaining the human scale of a family-run business.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px;line-height:1.65\">Today we farm around 120 hectares near Castiglione d\u2019Orcia, within the UNESCO-listed landscape of Val d\u2019Orcia. We manage vineyards, olive groves, arable land, pasture and woodland organically, with a daily commitment to quality, balance and respect for the land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px;line-height:1.65\">Our fields produce CALUS and DIANA wines, CALUS organic extra virgin olive oil, grappa, saffron and the ingredients served in our restaurant. The same land welcomes guests to the Villa La Palazzetta farmhouse, where accommodation, dining and landscape become one seamless experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px;line-height:1.65\">The names of our products pay tribute to the Etruscan history of this land. Those names look to the past; our work looks ahead, protecting Val d\u2019Orcia, producing responsibly and giving every visitor a genuine connection with the Tuscan countryside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px;line-height:1.65\">Terre di Giorgio is our family project, shared with the people who work alongside us and with Ares, Charlie and Zoe, all inseparable from daily life on the farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-ea4bfa63 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:32px;margin-bottom:44px\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/giorgio.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/IMG_7020-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"Ares\" style=\"border-radius:8px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/giorgio.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/6BF052C3-348F-45F0-BB37-63718CFD399F_1_105_c.jpeg\" alt=\"Charlie\" style=\"border-radius:8px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/giorgio.land\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_4255-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"Zoe\" style=\"border-radius:8px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-style-plain is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-top:44px;margin-bottom:0;font-size:26px;line-height:1.5\"><p><strong>Welcome to our land.<\/strong><br>Alberto and Maja<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La nostra storia Una scelta di vita nata in Val d&#8217;Orcia Terre di Giorgio nasce nell&#8217;aprile del 2019, durante un viaggio di Alberto e Maja in Val d&#8217;Orcia.
