stone-built thousand-year-old hamlet with 335-acre organic wine farm and winery with cellar for sale in castellina in chianti, siena.

For the past 40 years the current owners have been fully dedicated to the production of quality chianti classico wines, renovating vineyards, creating a winemaking and aging cellar facility and, since 2009, pursuing organic certification. Annually some 75,000 bottles are produced, 75% marketed abroad. Excellent organic production of dop-certified evo oil with varieties of correggiolo, moraiolo and leccino. The estate features two separate facilities: the first is a 11th-century hamlet masterly restored into holiday apartments and a separate villa; the second includes offices and the winery facility featuring new technologies combined with scenic brick colonnades, arches and high vaulted ceilings. All residences retain the charm of tuscan country houses with arched loggias and natural stone facades overlooking a courtyard, and the interiors are embellished in rustic style with high wood-beamed ceilings, exposed terracotta tiles, stone walls, brick arches and wood-burning fireplaces.
