Originally built to defend the area around it, like a watch tower over one of the Roman era’s main roads – Via Cassia Imperiale, built by Emperor Hadrian in 123 A.D.. Today it lies deep in Chianti’s characteristic hills and forests, watching over its precious vineyard and olive grove. “Castello di Querceto remains among the most impressive operations, with its entire line of wines riding high”. Gambero Rosso Gold medal winner at Berlin Wine Trophy and awarded 92 points by James Suckling The majority of the vineyards were planted from 1975 to 1985, with twenty new hectares having been planted in recent times . Aromas of sliced strawberries, black cherries and sweet liquorice. Full bodied with typical acidity, and a complexed finish.
