The winery is located in Castellina in Chianti, on the slope down towards Elsa Valley. The estate covers 165 hectares and it is made up of 2 parts: the first one, located 450 meters above sea level, is Cellole, where we have our best vineyards and our holiday house; the second one is San Fabiano Calcinaia located 250 meters above sea level and 10 km distance from Castellina in Chianti, where you can find the rest of the vineyards, office, cellar and owner’s house. The farmhouse and cellar are part of a small medieval hamlet dating back to around the year 1000 A.D. Guido Serio and his wife Isa arrived to San Fabiano in 1983 and immediately made investments aimed to producing quality wines. They made gradually progress over the time, renewing the vineyards, the wine-making chain, the bottling and the cellar for refining the wine in wooden barrels. Nowadays the winery produces quality wines, appreciated all over the world, and produced exclusively with grapes from its own vineyards. The passage to organic will involve starting from 2012 the entire production: wine and oil, is the last step of a business choice that combines quality and sustainability of production.
