San Fabiano Calcinaia was acquired in 1983 by the current owner Guido Serio in Cellole near Castellina in the heart of the Chianti Classico region and developed into a winery according to modern standards. The origins of the farmhouse go way back to the eleventh century, when it was part of a medieval hamlet. A monastery once stood on the site of the property, where pilgrims stopped on their way to Rome. The vineyards, the winery, the bottling plant and the cellar for barrique ageing were thus gradually renovated by the estate owners. The result is not only an exemplary winery, but also a sensational architecture in which functional aspects are combined with artistic sensory stimuli. Guido and his wife Isa are happy to welcome guests to San Fabiano Calcinaia or to Borgo di Cellole, the country house in Castellina, where they spend a few days in flats tastefully furnished with period furniture and enjoy local specialities in the osteria.
From the beginning, however, the owners focused on the production of quality wines. The positive effects of the renewal on the quality standard of their own products were not long in coming. The wines of San Fabiano Calcinaia, according to Gambero Rosso "on a clearly articulated and concentrated fruitiness.". The Tuscan estate has long since produced wines of world renown. Guido can count on the expertise of consultant Carlo Ferrini and oenologist Franco Campanelli. Both wine experts attach great importance to well-balanced wines. The balance is brought about, among other things, by an in-house method of barrel ageing.
The estate produces IGT wines such as Cerviolo, a little Vin Santo del Chianti Classico and grappa, as well as the two DOCG classics - a pure Sangiovese vintage wine Chianti Classico and the Chianti Classico Cellole Riserva. For the Riserva, the grapes grow at an impressive 450 metres above sea level. There, the roots of the vines are in loamy soils with a high mineral content. The wines of San Fabiano Calcinaia mature on a total cultivation area of 42 hectares in vineyards planted around the estate and the village of Cellole. SUPERIORE.DE
