CASTELLO di VOLPAIA

CASTELLO di VOLPAIA

CASTELLO di VOLPAIA

Volpaia is an 11th-century walled village, which has been painstakingly renovated to preserve its winemaking heritage dating back to 1172. To respect the environment and local traditions, Castello di Volpaia estate vineyards are organically farmed and planted primarily to Sangiovese. The pride of Volpaia is its librarys vineyard of old, local Sangiovese clones, the Casanova Vineyard, planted to preserve the genetic diversities of these ancient clones native to Volpaia. Volpaia's hilltop altitude (617 meters above sea level) and the sandstone soils give Volpaia wines a distinctive brightness, freshness and elegance within the Chianti Classico region. But Volpaia is much more. There are 914 acres of land, including 114 acres of vineyards, nearly 40 acres of olive trees, as well as the walled village, villas and forests. In addition to protecting Volpaia's historic agricultural environment, the Stianti Mascheroni family, owners of Castello di Volpaia, work to preserve the village's artistic and cultural heritage, and the result is an intimate rural community waiting to share its wine culture and history with the world.
