The farm produces Chianti Classico wines, Vin Santo del Chianti, Oil, Grappa. All productions are family-run certified organic by ICEA Italy.
The cellar was carved from ancient pre-existing buildings, which naturally provide humidity and a constant temperature all year round, thanks to the thick stone walls. The technology is minimized, the fermentations take place in old cement tanks and in tanks frustoconical elliptical base of Nomblot, always concrete. All tanks are devoid of thermo-conditioning systems, to ensure that the fermentations are the most spontaneous and natural as possible.
