Savignola

Located in the Northeastern corner of the district near Greve in Chianti, the Savignola estate was founded in the 17th century.

Overview

The most internationally acclaimed wine production area of Tuscany, Chianti Classico boasts a rich history that can be rivaled by few other growing zones. First outlined by the Grand Dukes of Tuscany in 1716, the zone was expanded in 1922 and 1932 to encompass its current nine villages that straddle the provinces of Siena and Florence. The region has become home to some of Italy's finest Sangiovese, complex wines that can compete with the best Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.

Owned by the Fabbri family since 1780, the estate helped give birth to Chianti Classico's consorzio in 1922 and was the first to bottle a Riserva in the modern style a decade later. Today operated as a sustainable farm, the estate is dedicated to crafting products that respect the territory and its unique peculiarities while reaching the perfect balance between tradition, innovation, and elegance. Richly textured, expressive, and tightly structured, this is what Chianti Classico should be!
