Of Longobard origin, the castle, still retains its original medieval appearance with a long L-shaped body and the tower, in the middle of the facade.
At the Beginning of the century, thanks to Charles François, the property has been transformed from a country house on a farm that quickly, started to conduct its business in a dominant position. In 1911 it was already an award-winner in a competition between international wines. In 1924 he was part of the thirty-three founding companies of the Consortium of Chianti Classico.
