Winery Il Colombaio di Santa Chiara

An estate owned by a local family that has been active in agriculture for generations. The family's venture turned to wine production in the early years of the new millennium and has developed with the involvement of the next generation. The estate has progressively adopted organic practices and techniques aimed at enhancing indigenous grape varieties and the terroir.

The winery focuses on showcasing the terroir: attentive vineyard care, hand harvesting, spontaneous fermentations and winemaking aimed at highlighting the character of the soils and grapes. The estate is managed according to certified organic farming.

Location: San Donato, San Gimignano, within the Vernaccia di San Gimignano area. Vineyards are located on the Sienese hills on variable soils — sandy, marly, with stoniness and limestone — at altitudes of approximately 280–390 m a.s.l, depending on the vineyard.
