Taking inspiration from the wines of Burgundy but using a 'Tuscan twist' the wines have cemented themselves as being amongst the best wines in Chianti. Today the estate totals more than 100 hectares of the vineyards and still manage to retain retain their commitment to creating extraordinary wines, without causing harm or disrupting the delicate balance of nature. 

Querciabella is a wonderful Chianti Classico representing just how good high-altitude and perfectly exposed Sangiovese is when sourced from great vineyards such as Greve, Radda and Gaiole in Chianti, regularly regarded as three of the denomination’s best sub-zones.
