The estate

The estate of San Michele a Torri lies partly in the DOCG of Chianti Classico, and partly in the DOCG of Chianti Colli Fiorentini. This property, extending over 170 hectares with 50 hectares dedicated to vineyards, is planted primarily with Sangiovese, and some Canaiolo and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Paolo Nocentini, a dynamic entrepreneur, whose zest for life is contagious and entertaining, owns the estate. The vineyards and the winemaking are under the direction of Dr. Andrea Paoletti.

The philosophy of the estate is organic, demanding purity in all areas of viticulture and vinification. All of this under the watchful eye of Leonardo Francalanci, Managing Director.
