THE FARM

Our farm is located in a hilly region at an altitude of about 100mt, 10 km away from the seaaside. In order to produce good quality and healthy products, we are practicing ecofarming, to respect and to protect the surrounding environment and local traditions.

A part the production of olive oil, the family runs a small Agriturismo nemed “Tra gli Ulivi” (Among olive trees), and produces wine such as Le Grottine, Ferruggini, Felciaino, Guado de’ Gemoli and the line Lienà.

The farm of the Chiappini Family is stretching on the green hills of Bolgheri, offering a unique view of the surrounding area. The sun rises behind the green, wonderful and wild hills of Bolgheri, dominated by the fortress of Castiglioncello, that almost touching the tops of the famous cypresses, drawing on the sea.

In the blue of the Tyrrenian Sea, at the sun set, you can see the small island of Capraia, the mountains of Corsica and the Elba Island behind the promontory of Populonia, that closes the sea view, to go then to the South where you can see the ancient tower of Donoratico, the village of Castagneto Carducci, the gentle ridge where the castle of Segalari rises, cultivated with olive trees, vineyards and sometimes interrupted by scrubs of oaks, ilex and hawthorn, to end again with the hills of Bolgheri and Castiglioncello.

This wonderful theatre open to the seaside and protected from North and North- East, offers a particular micro climate: windy, airy and dry in summer. This condition, in addiction to the soil rich of minerals, makes the location extremely suitable for the growth of olive-trees and wine. Grapes grown on our farm are: Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Merlot, Vermentino and Viognier.
