Today, Castello di Albola covers 900 hectares, 110 of which are planted with vineyards, located at altitudes ranging from 400 to 680 meters above sea level. Here, the ideal microclimate, significant temperature variations, and altitude contribute to the creation of outstanding wines, nationally and internationally recognized as Wines of Altitude.
On soils of alberese and galestro we cultivate the flagship grape variety of Chianti Classico, Sangiovese, found in our historic vineyards of Capaccia, Selvole, Madonnino, Ellere, Marangole, Sant’Ilario, and Mondeggi. Alongside it, other native Tuscan varieties such as Malvasia and Trebbiano
are grown, used in the production of our traditional Vin Santo del Chianti Classico DOC.
In the vineyards of Poggio alle Fate and Acciaiolo, international varieties such as Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon thrive, giving life to wines with a unique and distinctive character.
Completing this vineyard landscape are oak woods and olive groves, where the Frantoio, Leccino, and Moraiolo varieties are cultivated, producing a fine extra virgin olive oil, an authentic expression of our land.
