The vineyards cover 70.4 acres (28.5 hectares), with right for an additional 7 hectares (17 acres) to be replanted, and each has its own unique terroir: a combination of soil, altitude and exposure, resulting in wines of extraordinary complexity. Currently under organic conversion since 2021, with final certification planned for 2024/2025, it produces some 130,000 bottles of fine Chianti Classico DOCG (4 labels) and IGT Toscana (6 labels), all of which have been awarded for their authentic expression of terroir with excellent scores obtained from JamesSuckling, Wine Hunter and Decanter.

The centuries of history of this place are preserved in the manor house, built on the walls of a medieval fortress that still preserves its ramparts, some towers and the stone bridge dating back to the 1400s. After centuries of battles it was later transformed into a luxury mansion where the Tuscan aristocracy spent the summer months thanks to the fantastic Chianti Classico region microclimate. Around the villa are the farm buildings in typical Tuscan style. One has been recovered with 8 suites, one as tasting rooms, while both the villa and the other buildings need overall recovery, total area of approx. 2500 square meters, with excellent potential to develop both a wine luxury resort or a private residence, ideal for receptions, entertainments, events and vacations surrounded by vineyards and nature. In a discreet and private corner of Tuscany, accessible by a 750-meter private driveway, close to stores, historic centers, and only 45 minutes south of Florence.
