Tenuta Il Sosso

Highlights:

“Il Sosso” Estate is located in the Commune of Lucignano, an exquisitely beautiful mediaeval historic centre, and which marks the border between the provinces of Arezzo and Siena.  The land belonging to the estate is situated mainly on the hillside and surrounds a Leopoldino-style farmhouse (flagship of the estate) built in the second half of eighteen century, which tells the Tuscany of Grand Duke Pietro Leopoldo and today makes it a precious and unique corner of this strip of the region.  The Farm has been owned by the Ravaglioli family for three generations, and since 1965 (the year in which the property was purchased) the family has shown the same boundless enthusiasm for cultivating the vineyards and striving continuously for quality, respecting the environment and the health of the productions.  Since 2004 has made the leap: the construction of the new company center with the new winery, the progressive renewal of vineyards with a special look to the Sangiovese.

Winery Description:

Il Sosso estate is situated amongst the extended hills of the Tuscan landscape in the heart of the green vineyards in the Arezzo area of Chianti, and specifically in the Municipality of Lucignano, an exquisitely beautiful historic medieval village.  The land belonging to the estate falls mainly on the hillside and surrounds the beautiful Leopoldino-style farmhouse (flagship of the estate) built in the second half of the eighteenth century.  The Farm has been owned by the Ravaglioli family for three generations. Since 1965, the year in which the property was purchased, they have put the same endless passion in the cultivation of the vineyards, striving continuously for quality, respecting the environment and the wholesomeness of the products.  To guarantee these aspects, the entire management of the production processes is carried out directly by the owners, Alberto and Elisabetta, agronomists, and Tommaso, oenologist, who transfer their love for the land to the wine with competence.
