Tenute Squarcialupi La Castellina has its roots in the ancient lands of the Squarcialupi family, nestled in the charming medieval village of Castellina in Chianti. Today, the winery is managed by the dedicated Bojola-Targioni family, who have revitalized the winemaking process while honoring traditional practices. The estate spans 30 hectares of vineyards and 10 hectares of olive groves, with the upper and ground floors of the historic building transformed into a beautiful hotel and restaurant.
Situated on the southwestern slope of Castellina, the estate offers stunning views towards Il Monte and La Ferrozzola. Visitors can enjoy the picturesque Chianti landscape from a beautifully restored farmhouse. The region's unique soil and climate create ideal conditions for cultivating exceptional grapes. The vineyards produce Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Colorino, Merlot, Malvasia, Trebbiano, and Cabernet Sauvignon, all of which are carefully selected and vinified in the Castellina cellar.
From these grapes, the winery produces approximately 120,000 bottles of Chianti Classico and 80,000 bottles of DOC Maremma, along with two Tuscan white wines, one Tuscan Rosato, and the rare Vinsato Occhio di Pernice. Additionally, high-quality olive oil is crafted from their elevated olive groves. The Chianti Classico wines are characterized by their deep red color and garnet hues, particularly in the fully matured Riserva. Each bottle reflects the unique terroir of the region and the winery's commitment to quality. Guests are always welcome to enjoy a memorable experience in the world of Chianti wines.

We could not have been more charmed! Not only is the hotel in a suberb location with exceptional views, the staff are friendly, helpful and accommodating. We had such a lovely time, using the hotel as base for our travel around Chianti. The breakfast provided a wonderful array of buffet items and we experienced delicious dinners in the hotel restaurant, both with gorgeous views that added to the experience.

A very nice, stylish hotel in the center but not too loud. Rooms are tasteful and clean. Friendly staff, a beautiful terrace with a view of the landscape. The hotel's own winery invites you to visit and taste wine. Quite interesting. However, the path to the pool is not wheelchair accessible and the stairs down are quite adventurous. The loungers are in urgent need of an overhaul. But otherwise everything is top notch.
