Blustery, stony areas of high hills and vast, sunny and panoramic slopes. Small, medium and large producers, ambitious and humble, young and old, wellknown and not so well-known. Wines that are now austere and potent, now light and elegant, marking out a constellation of styles under a common banner of indispensable classicism. Of the eight municipalities of Chianti Classico, Castellina in Chianti is one of the most extensive and complex with the most ancient and turbulent history, evidence of which remains in the architectural, artistic and documentary legacy. This book, entirely dedicated to its territory and the winemakers who tell its story through their produce, seeks to present a reflection of it that is as impassioned as it is rigorous, leaving the task of a more detailed, intimate and sincere narration to the central characters – the winemakers of Castellina.
