What a wonderful lunch and tour. Chiara our guide was well informed and delightful. We felt like family by the time we left. We even met the gracious son and wife of the owner on our way out. We felt like we had made new friends.

Owner description:
The medieval castle and winery is situated in the Chianti Classico area on the western slopes of the Elsa valley, looking towards San Gimignano. In 1577 Ludovico Capponi restored the castle and commissioned Bernardino Poccetti, important painter, to fresco the loggia of the court. Production of wine is documented from 1596 on and until today we preserve the tradition and in our vineyards grow exclusively tuscan grape varieties which were used for high quality wines.

This is a belated review. My wife and I enjoyed a very simple wine tour in August 2011 -- and we were blown away by the wine. It's a simple, family-run estate that truly prides itself on making authentic chianti wine (with authentic italian grapes, not blends with foreign grapes). All chiantis are not the same, and all are not...
