monte argentario

tuscany

The promontory of Monte Argentario, whose landscape is considered hilly, (Punta telegrafo 635 meters over the sea level), is covered by Mediterranean bush and it is alternated by vineyards produced by the terracing of the hills, which are locally called "poste". In these vineyards Ansonaco vines are grown. The coast of Monte Argentario is high and rocky with small beaches and bays along the cliffs. The local economy, once based exclusively on fishing, now finds tourism as its principal business.
