Bottega SpA

In Castelnuovo Berardenga, at the southern tip of Chianti Classico, Bottega SpA cultivates Sangiovese and other red grape varieties permitted in the area to produce reds exceeding 12% alcohol. The denomination here dictates its rules, and the winery interprets them by focusing on meticulous grape selection and cellar techniques that shape the distinctive character of each label. The estate carries a broader history: founded four centuries ago by Andrea Bottega on the Prosecco hills, it has grown to become a globally recognized name for wines, grappas, and spirits. This Tuscan presence adds the voice of hillside Sangiovese to that esteemed repertoire. The doors are open: guided tours lead from the vineyard to the bottle, demonstrating how seemingly minor choices — the moment of harvest, the aging times — ultimately settle into the glass. It's a tangible opportunity to understand Chianti Classico through the dedicated actions of its producers.
