Tenuta di Capraia
Tenuta di Capraia farms over 25 hectares of vineyards located in Castellina in Chianti. The area is spread over a single stretch of land owned by the estate with a south-facing exposure, about 300 m above sea level. The village of Castagnoli rises from the heart of the Chianti Classico, on a hill once frequented by the Etruscans. From there it overlooks the surrounding valley from the top of a small hill that evokes ancient times, surrounded by woods, vineyards and olive trees. Extensive renovation work was carried out on the villa, vineyards and cellar. Today they are producing some of the top wines in the region and earning the praise and high ratings that they deserve.
“We were born as farmers and vine growers who know the land and the local area. Love for the land and work in the vineyard has been part of our lives for generations. Experience, dedication over the years and hard work then taught us the art of wine-making.”
A top source for classically made Italian wines, Tenuta di Capraia is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico district. It's owned and managed by Rocca di Castagnoli, and was certified organic in 2017. This under the radar producer is an original member of the Consorzio Chianti Classico. They bottle only the very best from their production to maintain their high quality wines.
