Castello di Bossi is located in the southern half of
the Chianti Classico production zone, in the
Comune of Castelnuovo Berardenga.
The first tower, built in the 1090, shows the area’s
wearily strategic importance. In the 1450 the
original structure was expanded into the 4 walled
fortress that visitors can still see today. Castello di
Bossi estate extends over 500 hectares, 120 of which
are under vine. The average elevation of the
vineyards is about 350 metres above sea level, while
their exposure varies from southeast to west. The
Sangiovese tends to be fuller and more highly
structured than the ones of the rest of the Chianti
Classico thanks to the mild climate of the
area. The Cabernet and Merlot where planted
about 40 years ago and probably are some of the
oldest vines of this varietals planted in the Chianti
Classico. The predominant soils are tuffs, yellow
clays, calcareous sands and broken stones.
