Tuscany – Giovanni Chiappini
Giovanni Chiappini winery is situated in the heart of the DOC Bolgheri zone at the Via Bolgherese, the road where the most important wine estates of the Bolgheri wine region are located.
The story of the winery tells us about the family tradition started by the head of the family, Giovanni Chiappini, son of farmers who moved from Marche to Bolgheri region in the fifties. This tradition was inherited by the two daughters Martina and Lisa who support their father in the work on the estate.

There are two main wine ranges produced: Bolgheri DOC wines Vermentino Le Grottine, Bolgheri Rosso Ferruggini, Felciaino and Guado de’ Gemoli, and the cru Liena range with the single grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.
