With a fascinating history, dating back to Medici Florence in the 1500’s, the Fattoria di Calappiano as we know it today is made up of 200 hectares of vines, planted alongside the olive groves and woodlands of this natural heritage site. Currently managed by the Sensi Family, the Calappiano estate and its team proudly respect the history and tradition of its past, while also embracing the modern innovations that have solidified it's spot as a must have Chianti.
The wine spends 24 months in wooden barrel before bottling, soft red cherries and plums on the nose with a savoury spiciness from the ageing process. The palate is well structured with more of that fruit and spice and a bright burst of acidity and fine tannins on the finish. A great match for roasted meats and mature cheeses.
