La Massa
From this winery
  • Start up year: 1992
  • Oenologist: Carlo Ferrini
  • Bottles produced: 100.000
  • Hectares: 27
La Massa is a gem located in the heart of Chianti Classico, whose philosophy revolves around studying the terroir as a tool to improve the efficiency of production, from the vineyard to the winery. 27 hectares of vineyard facing south in the beautiful Conca d’Oro of Panzano in Chianti (Fi). Documents unveil the fascinating history of the wine and the oil that has been produced since the XV century; at the end of the 1700s, when it was called Podere di Massa, it became the property of the curia of Fiesole, and subsequently of the “Spedale di Bonifazio della città di Firenze”. Giampaolo Motta took over in 1992 and started a lengthy restoration project of the vineyards and wineries, in order to chase his very own dream of making it into an unreachable Paradise. Read more
