Pietramaggio
Pietramaggio is Tommaso Inghirami's Chianti Classico expression, from their own high-altitude, low-yielding vineyard at the top of Greve, overlooking the Apennine mountains. The Inghirami family owns and farms 54 hectares of certified-organic vineyards with a focus on high altitude, cooler sites to preserve freshness in the wines.
Pietramaggio is produced from the Grignano estate in Chianti Rufina, which has been owned by the Inghirami family since the early 1970’s, and was once the personal property of Catherine de Medici in the 15th century. The family is also one of the best in Italian textile-fashion and the labels are a nod to their extensive antique textile collections, which are stored alongside decades of gracefully aging wine at this historic estate and cellar.
Young Tommaso Inghirami is leading his family's legacy into the future with both Pietramaggio and Grignano properties. By "Thinking locally and acting globally", he is bringing back ancient traditions but with a modernized lens. He is producing a lower alcohol, fresher style of Chianti incorporating more Tuscan oak, terracotta and cement while maintaining low yields and the highest quality.
