Located on an enviable hillside above the town of San Gimignano, the Cesani family grows grapes, olives, saffron, produces wine, organic beauty products, olive oil, distills grappa and maintains a bustling agritourism business. Their Vernaccia bottlings are lauded annually by Slow Food and Gambero Rosso and yet it's their Chianti from naturally fermented, organic Sangiovese that may be the estate's hidden gem.
