Castello di Verrazzano
Between Florence and Siena in Tuscany (Toscana), Castello di Verrazzano sits above Greve in Chianti, firmly inside Chianti Classico. Vines run from woodland margins down into the valley; limestone and clay, plus cooler air at elevation, give Sangiovese a savory, herbal profile and a long, saline finish.
Vineyard work stays deliberately hands‑on: organic fertilisation, mechanical weed control, strict yield management and harvesting by hand. In the cellar, lots are kept separate to protect site character, with fermentations tuned for clarity rather than extraction. Ageing leans on traditional large casks, with oak used as seasoning, not a signature.
The result reads as cultural Chianti Classico—precise, straight‑lined and unmistakably Tuscan. The estate’s long continuity is felt in the way each parcel is translated into structure and restraint.Castello di Verrazzano
