In the ancient lands of Castello di Albola where noble Tuscan families lived,
from the Pazzi to the Acciaiuoli to the Ginori Conti, the vine has thrived for centuries, producing perfect fruits in these panoramas devoted to the purest Beauty. The high altitude, the different and particularly suited soils, the fortunate exposure form an ideal whole that shines
with its own light in the luminous scenery of the Chianti Classico: among vineyards that climb the sides of the hills, historic buildings and testimonies of art. A dazzling jewel that requires daily dedication and constant care, and rewards those who love it with extraordinary wines.

Authentic wines with a seductive personality that demand devotion and thought, in the continuous challenge of equaling the value of Castello di Albola and doing justice to its wonder.

Acciaiolo is a sumptuous interpretation of the expressive power of the soils around the Castello di Albola: from a single vineyard of old vines, a rigorous selection of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes give character and elegance. In the name, a tribute to the Acciaiuoli family; in the glass, a precious wine, with a strong and graceful design, a soft and supple body, a seductive aroma, an infinite sip.

type of soil
The soil falls on the geological formation of the Alberese, originating from Pliocene marine deposits. This resulted in soils with a clayey-silty texture. The good drainage of the soils is due to the presence of skeleton.
training method
Spurred cordon.
vinification and refinement
The grapes are harvested by hand and selected in the vineyard. Upon receipt, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The period in contact with the skins varies from 3 to 4 weeks with constant control of the extraction. Subsequently, the wines undergo malolactic fermentation in steel followed by a period of approximately 18 months in French oak barriques. The wine continues to age in the bottle for approximately 18 months.
