The Azienda Agricola Il Palagetto was founded in 1991 in San Gimignano and immediately distinguished itself for its effort to concentrate on quality. The famed Oenologist Tachis was the chosen wine maker. The farm is no longer a small local entity. It now encompasses over 200 acres all of which are located in Tuscany. The activities taking place on the farm are varied and, along with wine, include the production of olive oil, honey and saffron; all of which are produced using the proper combination of traditional and modern methods. A bed and breakfast, using restored farmhouses, is operated on the premises. The entire Niccolai family, Fina, Luano and children Sabrina and Simone, are involved in the daily administration of the farm.
