La Castellina 1 Items

The winery “Fattoria La Castellina” draws its origins from the past properties of the noble Squarcialupi family, which extended around the medieval borough of Castellina in Chianti. Today, the farm belongs to the Bojola-Targioni family who, with great passion, have given a new incentive to the property, introducing modern equipment and new techniques, respecting the Chianti wine- growing traditions. 30 of the 140 hectares belonging to the property are now specialized vineyards, registered at the Chianti Classico Board and 10 hectares are olive-groves. The head office of the winery has its seat at “Palazzo Squarcialupi”(XV° century) with its Wine -ageing cellars and Direct Sales shop. The ground floor and the upper floors of the building, once the home of the family, have been restored and transformed into the Restaurant “Taverna Squarcialupi” and the elegant Hotel “Albergo Palazzo Squarcialupi”.
