The authority on Chianti
Since the beginning of the 20th century, the Masi family has owned the Fattoria di Basciano estate and have been making wine here for three generations. It is located right in the heart of the Chianti Rufina area, on the top of a hill overlooking the Argomenna Valley on one side, and the right bank of the Sieve river on the other. The vineyards are at an elevation of almost 1000 feet above sea level, lying on a very stony soil, locally known as “Galestro”. The micro-climate is ideal for the ripening of grapes and olives. It is dry, with light breezes, marked by scarcity of rain and a remarkable range of night and day temperature in summertime. The 75ha property is divided by vine- yards, olive orchards, and forest land.
