La Querce estate is located on the Chianti Florence hill that faces Impruneta at the heart of the Chianti Colli Fiorentini. In its 42 hectares of extension we grow vineyards and olive trees. It’s cultivated according to both tradition and innovation, limiting chemical interventions in order to reach the balance between soil and plants. As a result we obtain high quality products. Since 2019 we are organic. The soil in our Chianti hills tend to be clayey, this allows to always having a water reserve at our disposal that plants can use in harsh moments. Most fields face south in a wide valley; this helps to obtain sun exposure and light breeze during the harvest. The 8 hectares of vineyards have all been planted both with traditional grapes of this area Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino, and with grapes Merlot. In the cellar the grapes are treated with much respect so as to produce natural wines and characterized from the territory.
