Tenuta San Vito: A Legacy Since the 1960s

Tenuta San Vito Winery has a rich history that dates back to the 1960s, when founder Roberto Drighi began cultivating specialized vineyards and olive groves. The establishment of a cellar and olive press marked the beginning of wine and olive oil production, a tradition that has been lovingly maintained by the Drighi family over the decades.

Commitment to Organic Farming

In the early 1980s, Laura Drighi, one of Roberto's daughters, initiated a shift towards organic farming practices. By 1985, Tenuta San Vito was officially certified organic, with further compliance to European Union regulations achieved in 1991. Today, Neri Gazulli, Roberto's nephew, manages the estate and passionately upholds the principles of organic agriculture. The winery cultivates a variety of grapes, including Sangiovese, Merlot, Chardonnay, Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo, Colorino, Malvasia, and Orpicchio. Their red, white, and sparkling wines have earned prestigious certifications such as DOCG, DOC, and IGT. Tenuta San Vito combines traditional winemaking methods with organic practices to produce high-quality wines.

Stay at the Winery: Agritourism Experience

Since 1985, Tenuta San Vito has expanded its offerings to include agritourism, transforming the estate into a welcoming destination. Guests can enjoy comfortable apartments, rooms, swimming pools, and a restaurant on-site. Guided tours of the vineyards and winemaking cellar provide an opportunity to learn about the winemaking process and appreciate the stunning Tuscan countryside.

Rustic holiday apartments in an absolutely quiet area, but close to Florence (approx. 18 km). Delicious organic Chianti directly from the Tenuta.... Great pool and relaxed atmosphere!

We have tried the farmhouse cuisine on several occasions, always experiencing the pleasant experiences of a refined cuisine that pays attention to raw materials, ready to offer traditional Tuscan dishes with some new and interesting touches. From the appetizer to the dessert, everything is always of great quality, accompanied by the estate's wines that are the perfect match.

The cellar tour and lunch were simply exceptional! Mrs. Cinzia's organization was perfect. We had a really good time. Congratulations also to the chef, who delighted us with truly exceptional Tuscan specialties! Spectacular wild boar pappardelle! The location in the middle of the Tuscan hills is also beautiful. Highly recommended!

Tuscan dishes of excellent quality, including the organic wines produced there. Dogs accepted.

We stayed for a week at the Righe farmhouse. The property is simply magnificent, a haven of peace in the middle of vineyards and olive trees. The pool and the fan help to cope with the heat. A little higher up, the nights are cooler! The staff is very nice and the wine is good 😁 In short, a very nice place to absolutely recommend!!!
