Chianti Classico Gran Selezione

Set in the scenic Chianti Classico hills of Castelnuovo Berardenga you’ll find the stunning estate of Fattoria di Valiano. The organically farmed 75 hectares of vines are managed by Valiano’s vigneron and winemaker, Pasquale Presutto, who pays close attention to every detail. The soul of the estate revolves around the production of Chianti Classico, to which two exclusive and specially dedicated vineyards are reserved for the Gran Selezione designation.

Villa Rosa is among the estates with the richest heritage in Castellina in Chianti, and its vineyards truly resonate the essence of the Chianti Classico.

The Cecchi Family purchased the property from the Lucherini Bandini Family, who carefully tended the land for almost 70 years. The families shared a great friend, who kept the families close together: the renowned and formidable wine taster, Giulio Gambelli.

In 2015, as soon as the company was purchased, a meticulous work of soil profiling commenced, consisting in the in- depth analysis of the terrain by employing the most innovative techniques.

Ricasoli is the most representative wine producer in the Chianti Classico area. With its gentle hills, velvety valleys and thick woodlands of oaks and chestnuts, the 1,200 hectares of property include almost 240 hectares of vineyards and 26 of olive groves.

This creates a continuous succession of colors and hues around the Brolio Castle, which is located within the town limits of Gaiole in Chianti. Since 1993, Baron Francesco Ricasoli has been guiding this central Tuscan company in innovative challenges. This has been done with the deepest respect for his renowned ancestors who have made this territory great, Bettino Ricasoli first and foremost.

Francesco Ricasoli, current owner and President of the company, has generated new ideas and concepts to render the vineyards sustainable. The ongoing study of soil types and the clonal selection of the Brolio Sangiovese are among his greatest passions, and he has totally renovated the vineyards and completely mapped them.

The new wines are therefore the expression of research carried out with the same scientific rigor of his illustrious ancestor but with a contemporary spirit, like a runner receiving the baton and carrying it forward with renewed energy.

Cafaggio was once founded in Panzano by the Benedictan friars of Siena in the medieval era of 1408, cultivating grapevines and olives. The Farkas family during the 70’s completely renovated the grounds of the country home, equipping the already endowed earth with the most advanced production facilities. Cafaggio covers approximately 60 hectares, of which 30 are cultivated as specialised vineyards and about 10 as olive groves. The remaining area is woodland. Situated in an area recognised as the finest zone for producing Chianti Classico.

Welcome to the largest family of Chianti Classico

On 21 June 1965, il Sir Gualtiero Armando Nunzi came together with an initial group of 18 winegrowers to unite under the name of Castelli del Grevepesa.

Their shared intention was to bring together different people from the various areas of Florentine Chianti Classico in order to safeguard the land and maintain intact the hundreds of years of traditional Tuscan winegrowing: the long-established know-how that farmers still pass on today from one generation to the next.

Castelli del Grevepesa

The name ‘Isole e Olena’ came about in the 1950s when the De Marchi family purchased and combined two adjoining estates, ‘Isole’ and ‘Olena’, each of which dated back hundreds of years. The estate is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico region at the midway point between Siena and Florence. 

Fourth-generation winemaker Paolo De Marchi studied Agriculture at the University of Turin and worked several harvests in California and France. When he first arrived at the family estate in 1976 from his home in Piemonte, he found much need for improvement and modernization in the Chianti Classico region. One of the initial projects involved planting single vineyards of international varieties. Through these advances, Paolo ultimately discovered a way to balance tradition with innovation.

We are between Castelnuovo Berardenga and Siena, a remarkable part of the Chianti due to its unique terroir. It is at San Giorgio a Lapi where the story of Gallo Nero and Siena cross paths in the production of brilliant and distinct wines. We have always considered our main strength to be the harmonious complexity that characterizes our reality in all of its aspects: from our land’s shape to our family history, where Tuscany and Trentino merge into an exclusively modern product.

Halfway between Florence and Siena, in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, lies the small village of Panzano. Just below the village church, at 450 m above sea level, is the Fattoria Le Fonti. It extends over 15 hectares (37 acres); 9 hectares (23 acres) are vineyards and the rest olive groves.

The roots of a great wine are found in the vineyard and we strive to keep them in balance by farming sustainably (organic). Thanks to our relative small size we can follow the production with great care: only the best grapes arrive in the cellar and only the best selections are bottled in the end.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to Le Fonti for a wine tasting or a cellar visit.

The Certosa di Belriguardo, with its 75 hectares of land, seven of which are cultivated with vineyards, is located seven kilometres from Siena, in the heart of the “Chianti dei Colli Senesi” area.

The estate cultivates mainly Sangiovese, the area’s most representative grape variety, which has always been part of the DNA of these soils. The meticulous attention and care devoted to the vines is possible thanks to the limited extension of the vineyards, which are pruned and harvested entirely by hand.

The estate has abandoned the use of synthetic fertilisers and herbicides and is currently undergoing conversion to organic farming.

Tenuta Campomaggio, owned by Castellani family, is located in the heart of Chianti Classico, with outstanding views of the hills of Radda in Chianti. The estate, with 33 hectares of vineyards, is surrounded by more than 70 hectares of woodland and is home to the hamlet and resort Villa Campomaggio. Particularly suitable soils, altitude, and careful and respectful winemaking allow us to make intriguing and modern wines without ever neglecting the incisive traits of classic Sangiovese.

Castello di Fonterutoli - owned by the Mazzei family since 1435 - covers a total surface of 650 hectares, of which 110 are devoted to vineyards, divided into seven sites.

All the main operations - pruning, tying, stripping leaves, thinning out the bunches and harvesting, are carried out manually and in different times and ways for each plot.

The in-depth knowledge of our land together with forty years' research allowed us to select 36 types of Sangiovese, some of which are exclusively held by the Castello di Fonterutoli, making us a unique protagonist of Chianti Classico area.
