Tenuta di Salviano was purchased by the Principe Corsini family in the late 17th century. The property has Ethruscan and Roman descent, in fact the main house on Salviano was a Roman villa and somewhere on the estate is a necropolis. Donna Nerina Corsini married Il Marchese Enrico Incisa della Rocchetta, and their two children Giovanni and Eleonora are now the owners of Tenuta di Salviano. Il Marchese Giovanni Incisa della Rocchetta manages the estate and oversees the winemaking with his wife, La Marchesa Tara.
The estate is just over 2,000 hectares. The vines are planted in the best plots of vineyards across the vast land. The terrain is mountainous with the Tevere running through and a man made reservior called Lake Corbara. The soil is limestone, sedimentary rock, sand and tufo. The vineyards range from 100 meters to 530 meters in altitude, and many are planted on South West facing slopes. Harvesting is done in entirety by hand with careful bunch selection taking place.
