Nothing but the best, in the heart of the Chianti Classico district.
A selection of wines produced in line with the traditions of a unique location.
LA TENUTA POGGIO AI MANDORLI
A special place, in the heart of Chianti Classico, recalling the Tuscan traditions of these latitudes, where we produce wine and oil, bringing out the best in nature’s gifts.
Tenuta Poggio ai Mandorli is also a place of hospitality. The wine tours and tastings are set in a context blending nature with architecture, allowing wine lovers to taste products just a stone’s throw from the cellars, in a completely renovated building transformed into the ideal location for discovering the products.
An estate covering over 52 hectares, at an altitude of 350 metres above sea level, in an area running through the heart of the Chianti Classico territory, near Strada in Chianti not far from Greve.
The pebbly, mineral-rich south-east facing lands enjoy an ideal micro-climate that gives the Sangiovese grapes their lively fruitiness.
On the occasion of the 90th anniversary of the foundation of the company, they created this particular wine produced and vinified in purity from Petit Verdot grapes, which are harvested after late maturation and then left to dry slightly.
