Tours of our Estates represent a unique opportunity to learn about and discover the territory, traditions, our values, but above all to taste our wines in combination with Tuscan food and wine excellences.

Collection

With a vineyard area of more than 300 hectares, Carpineto puts together the three most important appellations in Tuscany: Chianti Classico, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Brunello di Montalcino. There are three production lines and more than 30 labels.

Carpineto was founded in 1967 in the small town of Dudda, within the municipality of Greve in Chianti, by the Sacchet and Zaccheo families, who still run it today. Carpineto cultivates in a sustainable and carbon-neutral way 500 hectares of estate land divided among 5 estates in the historic areas of Tuscany: Chianti Classico, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Brunello di Montalcino, Alto Valdarno and Maremma.

Carpineto’s Montalcino estate is one of the highest in the appellation at an altitude of 500 meters (1,600 ft) above sea level. The sedimentary soil has a galestro frame with clay accumulations dating to the Eocene era (15 million years ago).The vineyards are surrounded by thick woods which protect the vineyard from the warm and humid westerly winds that come up from the Maremma, and confer the wine flavors of wild berries and Mediterranean herbs. The unique microclimate gives wines with intense bouquets, vibrant acidities, fine elegance, and great longevity.
