Wines
From their 30 hectars of vineyards, the Counts Capponi produce wines
internationally recognised and enjoyed since the beginning of the 20th
century.
However, the products of Villa Calcinaia were already well
known since the 16th century, as proven by documents in the family
archive.
Piegaia Chianti Classico
This Chianti Classico comes from younger vineyards placed on cooler hills facing east and planted with clones of Sangiovese which privilege floral and fruity bouquet. In its winemaking much thought and heed has been given to enhance to the utmost all elements of floralness and charm.
Fermentations takes place in small steel tanks at a sober temperature of less that 27° C and the aging is in cement vats for at least fifteen months.
