Lornano is a boutique winery owned by the same family since 1904. We’re located in the picturesque southwest hills of Castellina in Chianti, at the hearth of the Chianti Classico DOCG wine region, on the border between Castellina and Monteriggioni. The winery was initially constructed in the 15th Century, and the current structure dates back to the latter half of the 18th Century.
