Tenuta la Novella is located in the heart of Tuscany, between Florence and Siena, in the Chianti Classico appellation. This vast 188 hectare estate, which had been abandoned for years, has regained its lost splendor under the leadership of Simone Zimonella, becoming one of the most ambitious restoration projects in Toscany. The 15 ha of vineyards are Certified Biodynamic, at some of the highest elevations in all of Chianti, and planted on the highly prized shist and sandstone soils of Greve. Everything produced on the estate is done by hand, nothing is industrialized.
