    San Giusto a Rentennano – the name is of Etruscan origin and embodies centuries of history. This medieval estate lies in the southernmost corner of Chianti Classico, where the region meets the upper reaches of the Arbia and the hills become more remote, quieter and rougher. A Cistercian monastery – San Giusto alle Monache – once stood here. In 1204, the Florentines fortified the area as a border outpost against Siena. The underground vaults from that period now serve as the storage cellars for Martini di Cigala. The family has owned the estate since 1914. Luca, Francesco and Elisabetta now run it guided by the conviction that has defined the estate since the early 1980s: Sangiovese needs no shortcuts. It needs low yields, fully ripe harvestand time. Organically farmed since 2006, with green pruning in July and August reducing yields by 30 to 50 per cent. 95% Sangiovese, 5% Canaiolo, harvested by hand.

    The 2024 vintage was produced in a year of extreme weather: a rainy spring, late frosts in April, followed by a long, dry summer. The grapes that survived were concentrated and healthy. Matured in oak barrels andLiters for 10 to 12 months.

    Bright ruby red. On the nose, cherry, plum, undergrowth, spices and a mineral undertone. On the palate, it is dry and well-balanced, with crisp acidity, well-structured tannins and a long, earthy final. A Chianti Classico from the southernmost heart of the appellation – consistent, full of character, and uncompromising. SUPERIORE.DE

    "The 2024 Chianti Classico is a pretty rich wine for the year. Dark-toned Sangiovese fruit, new leather, spice, menthol and mocha all meld together in this glass. Supple and engaging, the 2024 has a lot to offer, starting with plenty of immediacy and tons of San Giusto character." Vinous

    "Restrained, mineral and elegant, with subtle aromas of red cherries and fresh violets, interwoven with notes of citrus, redcurrants and liquorice. Light-bodied, crisp and velvety, with a firm structure and a youthful, lingering finish." James Suckling
