About the Winery

Located amidst the tranquil hills of the Chianti Classico zone, sits the stunning Rocca di Montegrossi winery. Established by the Martini family, it's stone-walled edifices and verdant vineyards paint the perfect Tuscan landscape, complete with an organic allure and country chic.

The winery spans over 100 hectares, with 20 hectares specifically dedicated to grape cultivation. There, modern viticulture techniques blend seamlessly with traditional practices to bring forth some of the finest quality varietals including Sangiovese, Pugnitello, Canaiolo and Colorino. As a testament to its sustainable approach, since 2006, the production at Rocca di Montegrossi has been entirely organic, a fact that significantly elevates the appeal of its distinguished wines.

As you journey through the vineyard it becomes vaguely apparent that a visit to Rocca di Montegrossi is more than a mere wine tour. It's a genuinely immersive experience, marked by the beauty of Tuscan nature, appreciation of dedicated craftsmanship, and the superior pleasure of tasting authentic Italian wines. Connoisseurs will take particular delight in their Chianti Classico, a distinguished red that marries the robust Sangiovese grape with the subtler Canaiolo.

However, the true crown jewel of Rocca di Montegrossi is the opulent villa that oversees the vineyard. Steeped in history, the villa not only serves as a bed and breakfast but, also as a splendid venue for weddings and events. An amalgamation of Tuscan tradition and luxury accommodation, it's a vastly sought after destination by those yearning for the quintessential Italian countryside experience.

The Rocca di Montegrossi winery weaves a beautiful narrative of striking scenery, detailed winemaking, and tranquil Tuscan living; serenely composed within the heart of Chianti Classico.
