Tasting Wines in Chianti Classico
Volpaia is a fantastically preserved and renovated Italian village of medieval origins. The Stianti family, owners of Castello di Volpaia, have painstakingly restored much of the village and converted it to their winery while preserving all the architectural details and appearances that takes one back to a simpler way of life.

Vineyard Tour of Volpaia
Had a very lazy day today, grabbed a coffee from our local, walked around our property and had lunch. Were hanging around waiting for our tour at 4pm in Volpaia. Arrived in Volpaia, met up with Roberta who took us on our tour. She gave us a bit of a history blurb on the origins of the hamlet, and took us to the olive oil pressing room first. Was so interesting to see how it's all done. Then we set of the the winery side of things, she took us through the entire process from crushing to fermenting, to aging, to bottling to drinking. We tried 1 white, which was crisp and fresh, and 3 reds. We liked the Classico Reserve the best. She showed us how the dry the sweet white grapes to make the dessert wine, what a sight! Wish we had of tasted that one, bit x'y to buy. All in all a very interesting experience, Volpaia was gorgeous, so old, yet behind the big ancient doors lies the most modern wine making equipment known to Italy!

Dungeons and Trebbianos
F ifty-two people, four churches, no priests. And the niftiest winery you've ever seen. Welcome to Volpaia. Nifty? OK, medieval nifty, as in a winery that's cleverly built into, around, among, and through a tiny Tuscan hill town (a hamlet, really) that dates from the 11th century. It's spitting distance to Radda in Chianti, 25 miles from Siena and 35 from Florence, and its historic purpose was to fend off attacks from the Florentines. Its purpose today is to demonstrate how much better it is than where you live.
Castello di Volpaia harvests Sangiovese, Cabernet, Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Syrah and Chardonnay (this is not your grandfather's Chianti) from vineyards surrounding Volpaia, vinifies them in buildings hundreds of years old around the Piazza 23 Novembre, and ages them in labyrinthine cellars underneath a couple of those priestless churches - which is also the Lord's work. For you authenticity fans, you can finally climb up the steep stairs to a vin santaia, an attic where Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes hang on long chains from the rafters, like hams, drying out for months at a time before being turned into the most sacred sweet wine, vin santo.
And then you can go make lunch. The other nifty part about the winery (and olive oil producer) is that it's also a cooking school run by owner Giovannella ("call me Jo" ) Stianti Mascheroni. It's a very small cooking school, and yes, you can sign on for just one meal. I didn't enroll for class, but I did stay to eat Jo's Pasta Norma and her veal braised in milk and carrots. And drank her bright Chianti Classico, a food-affectionate, acid-rich sweetheart. For dessert, I nominated her for sainthood.

2004 Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico Riserva
The 2004 Chianti Classico Riserva (100% Sangiovese) presents black cherries, fume as well as earthiness upon the round, not overly tannic-textured frame, with the absolute personality, glorious length as well as excellent tannins. It outlayed dual years in the multiple of Slavonian ash casks as well as not as big French ash barrels. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2016.

Dispatch from Chianti 2007: the news is good and bad
... Thankfully, enough producers did make excellent wines. Among the best are Querciabella, which has a wonderful elegance throughout and the delicious Castello di Volpaia, with unusual strawberry fruit and gentle tannins. Both wines should drink well for 5-7 years.

Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico Riserva 2004
100% Sangiovese While needing a bit of time to get going this has classic notes of tobacco, leather and limestone on the nose. There is a nuance of vanilla and lovely grace notes of smoke and slightly herbaceous/herbal sod. This offers up a wonderfully feminine and firmly mid-bodied feel with fine acidity and rich flavors of leather, red currants, a touch of rust, and limestone with nice richness on the back end and solid length. Over the course of the evening this puts on weight and the fruit darkens but never becomes too heavy. Very fine, balanced Chianti that is sure to please. read more on Snooth.com

Small wine budget can go far with European options
With the 2005 Chianti ($13) from Castello di Volpaia, a top producer, the value really shows. The next step up, the 2004 Chianti Classico ($28), has outstanding fruit, structure and an earthy complexity. The top-of-the-line 2004 Chianti Classico Riserva ($34) has an even more impressive balance of fruit and complex components. Both should age well for several years.

Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico Riserva 1995
“A big, ornate wine defined by its elegance rather than size. Its richness is balanced by flinty tannins, and though it already has some age, it’s still tight enough to reward a few years of cellaring.”
This review by Ray Isle appeared in the INTERNATIONAL
WINERIES OF THE YEAR section of the Wine & Spirits Buying
Guide 2001. Out of 70 wineries of the year, Castello di Volpaia was
one of eight Italian wineries, and one of two Tuscans. “Out of the five
wines Castello di Volpaia exports, this year we recommended four--the
kind of record Ted Williams might envy. Our two favorites both hew to
the dried cherry and woodsy character of traditional Tuscan
sangiovese.”
