Cantalici Baruffo Chianti Classico Riserva 2022

The estate A wealthy Florentine family built L’Antica Fornace (the ancient kiln) in the 16th century in the medieval village of Castagnoli, near Gaiole in Chianti, the heart of today’s Chianti Classico region. The Fornace changed ownership several times over the centuries until Loris Cantalici purchased the site in 1972. Brothers Carlo and Daniele preserved the historic site and integrated it into their winery when they began their winemaking journey in the late 1990’s.
