Tenuta di Bibbiano is located in the municipality of Castellina in Chianti, in the UGA (Additional Geographic Unit) of ‘ Castellina ’, on the west border of the Chianti Classico appellation, close to the castle of Monteriggioni.
Tenuta di Bibbiano is famous and it is known be one of the most traditional and authentic producer in Chianti Classico. Already a cellar in the middle age, today’s owners are the brothers Tommaso and Federico Marrocchesi Marzi, the fifth generation of Marzi family who runs Bibbiano from the mid of ‘800. Bibbiano shares its history with a legend of the ‘modern’ Chianti Classico, Mr Giulio Gambelli: he was an oenologist ‘ante-litteram’, who dedicated all his life to improve the Sangiovese, combining science and art, experience and intuition, vision and experimentation. Starting in 1942 and for almost sixty harvesting Giulio Gambelli created Bibbiano’ wines and his heritage is part of Bibbiano’s vision.
Today the estate extends over more 200 hectares of land with 37 hectares of vineyards, certified organic farming and planted predominantly with grapes of Sangiovese and totally dedicated at the production of labels of Chianti Classico: Annata, Riserva, Gran Selezione Vigne di Montornello, Gran Selezione Vigna del Capannino.
