Vallepicciola Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG

Vallepicciola Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG

In the late 1990s, the Bolfo family decided to breathe new life into the ruins of an old convent located in the charming countryside of Pievasciata, a picturesque village in the municipality of Castelnuovo Berardenga (Siena). And it was from the vineyards of this monastery, lovingly and carefully transformed into the prestigious 5-star Hotel Le Fontanelle, that the story of Vallepicciola began.

An elegant bottle, with a fresh and refined sip, which outlines the unmistakable character of the Chianti Classico area.

Vallepicciola is certified VIVA.
