Fattoria Il Muro Chianti Riserva DOCG

Fattoria Il Muro has been owned by the Pancaro family for about 200 years and has always been dedicated to viticulture, thanks to the favorable environmental conditions. The presence of soils rich in galestro and the climate, characterized by strong temperature variations due to the proximity to the Alpe di Poti, create a micro-environment that enhances the organoleptic qualities and healthiness of the grapes. This allows for the adoption of environmentally friendly cultivation practices. The vineyards and olive groves extend mainly on hilly terrain that gently slopes towards the valley plain of the Castro stream.

The Pancaro family have known Stefano di Blasi privately for many years, well-known in the world of wine to be behind the helm of several vintages of Solaia and Tignanello from Antinori, and therefore also chose him as winemaker at this house’s Chianti Riserva.
