Our Wines
What We Do Best
Montefili wines are a pure expression of vine, site, and ethos. There is no recipe, and that’s what’s important – as shepherds of nature, we listen to our land and bear witness to what it wishes to express.
Sangiovese is in our blood. Our hilltop vineyards at 1,500 feet are the heart of Chianti Classico: a terroir and micro-climate with plentiful sunlight and refined galestro and alberese marl soils. Our future-facing sustainable approach is a bold path of confidence and patience. We only put on the vines what we’d want in our glass.
Montefili wines are the wines we want to pour at dinner, to gift to our loved ones, and to explain to a stranger a little of what’s in our hearts.
