Castelli del Gravepesa

castelli-gravepesa

History: As a  Wine Co-operative, was established in 1965 by a small group of eighteen winegrowers in Tuscany on the initiative of Mr. Gualtiero Armando Nunzi.
Their intention was to bring together a group of people from different areas of the Chianti Classico region whose common purpose was to preserve the centuries old traditions of the Tuscan viticulture. Since its foundation Castelli del Grevepesa has concentrated on producing high quality wines by carefully selecting the grapes and by complying with the strict regulations of the Law and the Consorzio “Gallo Nero” (Black Rooster).

Vineyards: From the wide expansion of the vineyards planted and cultivated by the members themselves on the hills of the Chianti Classico region and after years of experience within these territories, small areas or even single vineyards have been identified where the grapes with superior qualitative characteristics can be cultivated. Among these areas the most renowned are: Panzano, a fortified medieval village built in the vicinity of our Etruscan and later Roman settlement; Lamole, a small village high up on the South-East Hills of Greve in Chianti and Castle of Bibbione, ancient Manor, which was property of Niccolò Machiavelli.
