A brief history
Tenuta Canonica a Cerreto is truly a marvel for the senses! Traveling through the heart of Chianti Classico in Tuscany has become an easy task, with well-trodden and clean dirt roads. Yet, the stunning beauty of this place never ceases to amaze even those who are familiar with it. The colors that form as the sun's rays hit the vineyards fill your soul with happiness. The charm of this place is so captivating that it leaves anyone who decides to go from here where Sangiovese is the king of the territory in awe. Upon arriving at the gate of Tenuta Canonica a Cerreto, you immediately notice the silent yet imposing aura of the place. The thick, historic walls of the Canonica are steeped in history, but the view that greets the visitor goes far beyond their imagination! One can see a 360° panoramic view of an entire world: the hills, the clays, the famous "Torre del Mangia" in Siena, and below, the vineyards and olive trees, casting endless shadows and lights... Located in a strategic position, Tenuta Canonica a Cerreto is like an amphitheater that protects the vineyards. The soil in this southern part of Chianti Classico is clayey, and the vegetation is a stunning emerald green! In February 2022, the Rossetti family took over Tenuta Canonica a Cerreto and, with great dedication and a team of oenologists, entrusted it to skilled hands that take care of it with respect for tradition, but with an eye to the future. The profound restyling of the wines and labels has positioned Tenuta Canonica a Cerreto among the highest quality levels of Italian production.
