As self-proclaimed wine hotel experts we’ve tasted many Tuscan stays, yet
Fattoria Poggerino remains exceptional. Set deep in Chianti Classico on 43 hectares of organic vines & olive groves at 500 meters elevation.
Speckled across converted stone farmhouses are 11 cosy rooms with views over Sangiovese rows. Your day begins with a lovely home-made breakfast served on the terrace, where the landscape itself feels like part of the meal.
The winemaking at Poggerino is meticulous and organic, overseen by Piero Lanza, who tends the soils with fanatical care. Barrel-ageing in Slavonian or French oak brings out rich fruit and velvety tannins - Chianti Classico Riserva Bugialla has even earned Wine Spectator Top 100 mentions.
Tastings begin among the vines, glide into cellar tours, and unfold into guided flights that reveal depth and structure. Guests often note how approachable the wines are - despite their complexity.
Guests can also enjoy family-style dinners, cooking-classes, and leisurely moments by the infinity pool. Poggerino truly delivers a experience you'll want to return to.
