Geometries of land and history
In the heart of Tuscany lies a jewel of incomparable beauty: the Chianti hills. Their undulating, sinuous geometries have always attracted the attention of men, ever since the remote times of the Etruscans. Here, in 1961, seventeen farmers came together to give voice to the Tuscan countryside and to revive the local economy.
Thus was born, in the shadow of a farmhouse, an adventure destined to write the history of Tuscan wine: the Farmers of Chianti Geografico. From the year of its founding until today, its growers have always strived to protect the ancient art of tradition and to enhance the excellence of the territory.
An intent carved clearly in the name (“Geographic”) that the farmers chose to identify their deep-rooted belonging to the hills of Gaiole, Radda and Castellina, the ancient cradle of Chianti Classico.
From its earliest days, Geografico began to grind out early successes, attracting the attention of other farmers who joined the cause. The impressive levels reached by production made it necessary, in 1970, to build the historic winery in Gaiole in Chianti.
Meanwhile, Geografico expanded its dense sales network like wildfire, until it could boast a solid presence abroad as well. On the wave of unstoppable success, the winery prospered until it carved out a place of honor on the Tuscan winemaking horizon.
The business grew by leaps and bounds: in 1989, Cantina di San Gimignano also entered the orbit of the Geografico’s Farmers. In recent years, finally, Geografico has returned to prominence thanks to the Piccini family, which since 2018 has linked its fate to that of the historic Tuscan brand.
