Perched on a hilltop in the heart of Chianti, Volpaia is renowned for its Sangiovese-based wines, which are crafted from organically farmed vineyards surrounding the estate. The village itself is an architectural treasure, with its ancient stone buildings, olive groves, and vineyards creating a timeless atmosphere. Despite its historic roots, the winery employs state-of-the-art technology in harmony with traditional methods to produce high-quality wines.

Castello di Volpaia is particularly well-known for its Chianti Classico wines. The flagship wine, Chianti Classico Riserva, showcases the depth and elegance of Sangiovese, with aromas of cherries, violets, and earthy spice, complemented by balanced tannins and a long finish. The estate’s top wine, "Il Puro," is a rare single-vineyard Chianti Classico made from 100% Sangiovese, offering an exceptional expression of the varietal and its terroir. These wines are aged in a mix of French oak barrels and large Slavonian oak casks, giving them structure and complexity while preserving the freshness of the fruit.

In addition to its Chianti Classico, Volpaia produces a variety of other wines, including the "Coltassala" Super Tuscan, a blend of Sangiovese and Merlot that delivers richness and power, and the "Balifico" IGT, a bold and elegant red blend. The estate also makes a small quantity of Vin Santo, a traditional Tuscan dessert wine, as well as olive oil from its centuries-old olive trees.

Sustainability is at the core of Castello di Volpaia’s philosophy. All of the vineyards are certified organic, and the family is deeply committed to preserving the natural environment. The estate uses solar power, practices water conservation, and has integrated organic farming techniques to reduce its environmental impact. This dedication to sustainability ensures that the land will continue to produce exceptional wines for generations to come.

The estate is a member of the prestigious "I Grandi Cru di Toscana" and is recognized internationally for its commitment to quality and tradition. Visitors to Volpaia can experience the beauty of the medieval village, explore the organic vineyards, and taste wines that truly reflect the soul of Chianti.

Castello di Volpaia continues to be a leader in Chianti Classico, blending centuries of winemaking heritage with a forward-thinking approach to sustainability. Its wines, marked by elegance, balance, and a sense of place, remain a benchmark for the region and a favorite among wine enthusiasts around the world.
