The best selection of producers, vineyards and winery of Chianti Classico DOCG.
The Chianti Classico DOCG is one of the most famous Italian wines in the world, made in the area between the provinces of Florence and Siena for a total surface of 70,000 hectares. Itis allowed to produce this wine only on these 7000 hectares planted with vines, and the peculiarity of this territory is that the vines are very close to the olive trees, another great product of this land. It is important to distinguish the Chianti to the Chianti Classico: the Chianti is the wine made outside the classic area, while the Chianti Classico is the wine made within this very small area, which includes the towns of Greve in Chianti, Castellina in Chianti, Gaiole in Chianti, Radda in Chianti and also a part of the Florence's area with the towns of Barberino Val d'Elsa, San Casciano in Val di Pesa and Tavarnelle Val di Pesa and a part of the Siena's area with the towns of Castelnuovo Berrdenga and Poggibonsi. Beside the territory, also the production standards and the vines used are different; the main grape variety is certainly the Sangiovese, which can be blended with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Canaiolo and Colorino, depending from the company's choice. There are wine-producers who made the history of the Chianti, such as Ruffino, Antinori, Frescobaldi and Barone Ricasoli. Please find below our best prices and deals for Chianti Classico wines.


Banfi’s story begins in 1978 when two Italian-American brothers John and Harry Mariani bought a magnificent estate in Montalcino with the strong will to produce a great wine in a great territory. The investment was huge, as a result one of the most important winery of Italy was created with an extension of about 2800 hectares of property, 1000 of which planted as vineyards. In the early 80’s the company undertook an important research work together with the University of Milan regarding the study of Sangiovese clones in the company, identifying about 650 of them. Afterwards they studied which ones among them could better adapt to the specific soil conditions and which wine results they could provide. Today thanks to this study each vineyard is planted using 4 selected clones chosen by the research results based on the soil characteristics. During the years the Mariani brothers have decided to invest in other important areas of Italian oenology, such as Bolgheri, the Classical Chianti and Piedmont.
