The best wineries in Firenze.
Tuscany has always been a land of great Wines and great Oils... ...not at all "Chianti" is the spark that lights up all over the world the hearts of lovers of the good Cuisine.
And it is right passion for the Land, for good Wine and for Olive Oil that in 1935 led the brothers Carlo and Alberto Galardi, descendants of a family of Florentine merchants, to buy the estate of Poggiopiano.
Mauro is still keen to tell the family management, the desire to do and to be able to build, the commitment to maintain traditions while taking due consideration of all the improvements related to the progress in the wine and olive oil extraction fields, which characterized these years. His plan gives other people the opportunity to share his passion: the land and its fruits, Wine and Oil; to bring joy to those who seek for the tranquility and serenity of the countryside. The same conviction of his predecessors guides Mauro in this project: the pursuit of quality. And like them, he is constantly studying an searching for technological innovations. The traditional family passion for mechanics and his scientific training have been and continue to represent the indispensable complement and support in the realization of his project.
Agriturismo Fattoria di Poggiopiano
The stay in a farmhouse inn allows tourists to relax in pristine environments, to observe closely nature and to discover the genuine and healthy taste of the Tuscan cuisine.
During the renovation of the farmhouse and the barn, as in the construction of the "small Tavern", used as a breakfast room, the goal has always been to create an as healthy as possible environment, in harmony with the environment and respecting the surrounding habitat. Where possible, the basic lines of green building have been followed, involving the use of natural materials and energy–saving systems. Hot water is produced by solar panels and a photovoltaic system on the new winery of the farm produces electricity, with net metering.
Poggiopiano is the place where you will find lots of tranquility, fascinating views of the landscape and a strong appeal to nature and simplicity: you can meet deer, hares, wild boars, squirrels, you can see hawks circling in the sky and fireflies shine in the warm summer evenings. It is the ideal place to get away for a while!
The cellar is located on the ground floor of the main house located in the center of the natural amphitheater of the vineyards. The space inside is simple and functional, following a philosophy that does not allow itself to be distracted by the large decorations but which devotes all attention to the production of wine. The modern and practical steel mixes with the wood of the large 10 and 50 hectolitre oak barrels that give body but do not weigh down with too pronounced notes. In these the wines evolve for a period of one year to three years and rest in the bottle for another one to two years.
Like other Tuscan farmers of ancient families, I find myself reconciling secular traditions with the evolution of the times every day. I believe that the love for the land, the vineyards, the olive groves, handed down for many generations, has become part of my genetic heritage. The legacy of the POPPIANO CASTLE in the Chianti Colli Fiorentini represents for me the legacy of the Guicciardini family from the 11th century, while MASSI DI MANDORLAIA in the Morellino di Scansano in Maremma is a new reality desired and created. BELVEDERE CAMPOLI in Chianti Classico is the latest act of a diversification oriented towards quality.
At Podere Volpaio they produce Wine, Raisin Wine, Oil and Grappa using all trhough the production process the method of organic farming. “The organic method of cultivation is a clean form of agriculture which excludes the use of synthetic chemicals, pesticides or herbicides”. The soil is fertilized only with organic substances, the vineyards are treated, in a preventive manner, with organic substances harmless to animals and insects and do not leave any toxic residue in the soil and in wine.
The soil of Pliocene origin is rich in marine fossils and is featured by calcareous marl resting on tufa and parts of terrain with mixed sand and clay, an excellent sun exposure, and traditional methods of cultivation and harvest, still manual, allow us to obtain products of high quality with large variations, of great body. The ruby red color is typical of Chianti, with amber highlights more pronounced in the Reserves, pleasant and persistent aromas that give the wines of Podere Volpaio an unmistakable elegance and tipicality, unique in its kind.
Situated in a panoramic position in the hills of Petroio, a small locality in the Vinci municipality, the company has been owned by the Pratelli family since 1963.
The winery, recently renovated, is equipped with cutting–edge technological facilities suitable for the production of quality wine. The company produces two white wines, five red wines, a Vin Santo, two grappas and an extra virgin olive oil. They organize guided tours and tasting of the products of the company, on request.
The company is equipped with all the amenities that characterize a farmhouse inn of quality, where you can stay in the typical Tuscan farmhouses and enjoy nature routes in the hills of Montalbano, Vinci, as well as reach surrounding centers like Florence and Pisa.
The Corsini family is one of the oldest and most important noble Italian families, honored in Spain with the title of “Pari” and in Italy of that of Princes, hence the name of the company. Duccio Corsini leads personally, with great freshness of ideas, energy and passion, the two wineries of the family: Le Corti and Marsiliana.
Le Corti, with a continuous history of almost six centuries, is the historical company of San Casciano, the northern area of Chianti Classico: owned by the Corsini family since 1427, it has always been dedicated to vines and olive trees. The approximately 50 hectares of vineyard and almost 14,000 olive trees are combined into a landscape of remarkable beauty, with steep and stony slopes, dominated by the wonderful Renaissance villa. Given the great vocation of this land to Sangiovese, the production is focused on three Chianti Classico: the elegant and balanced Le Corti, the more complex and austere Cortevecchia Reserve, the rich, soft and powerful Don Tommaso. The range includes also three products that represent three different ways of reading the Chianti Classico territory through its main grape: Zac IGT Toscana 100% Sangiovese from a single vineyard, Rosé Le Corti, a rosé from Sangiovese, and the sparkling wine Charmat method Principe Corsini rosé, obtained from grapes of Sangiovese with a brief stay on the lees.
Marsiliana, located in Manciano in southern Maremma, one of the largest agriculture and hunting farms on the Tuscan coast. From the about 20 hectares devoted to vines, two international red wines of great interest are obtained. Marsiliana (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah) is a rich, warm and deep, typically Mediterranean blend. Birillo is an original mini–supertuscan produced from cabernet and merlot grapes.
That of Frescobaldi was one of the most important Florentine families in the political, economic and social history of the city of Florence.
Once in the city, perhaps from Val di Pesa, around the thirteenth century (although some sources indicate possible urban origins), they gave themselves successfully to the merchandise and to banking activities, like other illustrious families. Their main activities were the production and trade of wool, bank lending and, earlier than other families, agriculture in their vast estates in the country. The first news of the wine–growing activity of the Frescobaldi family dates back to 1308; a curiosity in regard to a document that records an exchange in nature (works of art for wine) with Michelangelo Buonarroti. In addition, Vittorio degli Albizzi, brother–in–law of the Frescobaldi for the marriage of his sister Leonia with Angiolo Frescobaldi, was among the first to test in the Frescobaldi estates modern methods of wine production, with the addition in 1855 of Chardonnay, Cabernet and Merlot grape varieties in Tuscany.
With the goal of being the most prestigious Tuscan wine producer, Frescobaldi firmly believes in respecting the territory, focuses on the excellence of its own grapes, and invests in communication and professionalism of human resources.
Currently, Marchesi de Frescobaldi is one of the largest producers of Italian wine of quality, has the largest extent of vineyards in Tuscany, with 1,200 hectares and five farms, all located in areas particularly suited and dedicated to the production of fine DOCG, DOC and IGT wines: from the Chianti area to that of Pomino DOC, from Montalcino to Maremma, from Mugello to the province of Livorno. Estates of property and beautiful vineyards, where perfect knowledge of the environment and the control of raw materials allow Frescobaldi to ensure constant quality and the strong personality of its wines.
"Fattoria Castellina" is located on the southern slopes of Montalbano, within the Barco Reale, the ancient hunting grounds of the Medici family. It covers an area of 110 hectares, of which 10 are vineyards, 30 are olive groves and 10 are arable land. The rest is a forest of oaks, acacias, maples and pines surrounding the entire estate.
Fabio Montomoli is the tenant of the farm, while his wife Elisabetta takes care of the farmhouse inn.
The vineyard was gradually renovated from 1999 until 2000 and an old vineyard left fallow for 20 years was recovered: it has been replanted with the cultivation of bush vines and the"settonce" planting system (an ancient Greek method). The high density (8,300 plants/ha) makes that processes are done exclusively by hand or with the aid of animal drawn tools; this allows to preserve to the maximum the soil structure.
Since 2004, "Fattoria Castellina" has embarked in the entire company on a journey across the anthroposophic principles of Rudolf Steiner and have implemented biodynamics.
Il Molino di Grace is located in the heart of the prestigious area of Tuscany’s Chianti Classico and is dedicated to the production of well–renowed wines, expression of tradition and terroir. The company’s name derives from a historic windmill of the nineteenth century, situated next to the statue that stands in front of the winery and that is depicted in the labels of the Molino’s wines.
Fattoria Selvapiana is a family-owned winery that has been producing high-quality wine for generations. They specialize in the organic production of Sangiovese grapes, which are used to create a range of elegant and complex wines. The winery is committed to sustainability and preserving the natural environment, with a focus on using traditional winemaking techniques to create wines that beautifully express their terroir.

The Farm

From Chianti Classico grapes a typical grappa is produced. To complete our production, the cultivation of olive trees that allows Camporena to obtain extra virgin olive oil and Chianti Classico DOP extra virgin olive oil.
Since 2010, La Camporena farm has been producing both its wines and oils from organic farming.
The Castle of Poppiano was a mighty medieval building with a triple ring of walls built around the year 1000 as a fortress to defend the outside part of Florence, and, as was pointed out by an act of inheritance of 1199, has been belonging to the Guicciardini family for at least nine centuries.
In this long period it has been the center of various events related to the history of Florence: so, for example, in 1369 Giovanni Acuto (John Hawkwood, the famous English Warlord), after the battle of Fosso Armonico, near Cascina, camped in the Castle of Poppiano. The castle was partially destroyed in 1529 during the siege of Florence, as Francesco Guicciardini recalled in his Memoirs. The Castle, as it is today, while maintaining its ancient grandeur, is the result of a restoration based on existing images in frescoes in other villas of the Guicciardini family in Val di Pesa and in Val d’Elsa, following the damage caused by an earthquake in 1812.
The Guicciardini family, since the thirteenth century had a prominent position in the political, social and economic life of Florence and in 1416 Piero G. was appointed "Conte Palatino" by Emperor Sigismund of Luxembourg. They actively participated in the public life of Florence where they provided 44 "priors", 16 "gonfaloniers of justice" and 12 senators.
The pre–eminent personality of the family was Francesco, the Historian (1483-1540) who, after covering important positions with the Medici family – ambassador in Spain, Governor of Modena and Reggio, head of the League of Cognac – retired in Florence and in Poppiano, where he wrote his most important work, the "Historia d’Italia".
