The Società Agricola Castello di Radda is located on the hill facing the village of Radda in Chianti to the east, below the castle of Volpaia, Siena. The vineyards' exposure is from southeast to southwest on medium-textured clayey-calcareous soils, with a good presence of skeleton, particularly suited to the cultivation of Sangiovese and Canaiolo grapes.

The Beretta family bought the estate in 2003 to increase their interest in the wine-growing sector. They are already active with the family's historic company "Lo Sparviere", which produces the precious Franciacorta sparkling wines. The project took shape with the recovery, in qualitative terms, of the 45 hectares under vine and the construction of an extensive wine cellar built according to the design of architect Spartaco Mori.

Origin Radda in Chianti (Siena)
Climate The climate of Radda is characterized by thermal solid excursions and never excessive maximum temperatures, thus favouring the elegance of the wines. The company's vineyards are located about 400 m. a.s.l. and enjoy Southeast, South, and Southwest exposures.
Soil composition Clayey-limestone with a good presence of silica skeleton.
Harvest By hand. The grapes are then sorted once they arrive at the winery.
Wine making Fermentation occurs in stainless steel thermo-conditioned 50 hl and 100 hl vats, followed by maceration on the skins for 2 or 3 weeks. The malolactic fermentation is carried out both in stainless steel and wood.
Aging Part in tonneaux and part in Slavonian 20 hl oak barrels. Final ageing in bottle for at least 6 months before marketing.
Allergens Contains sulphites
