A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Tuscany's Chianti Hills
The historic Tenuta San Fabiano, owned by the Counts Borghini Baldovinetti de’ Bacci, is nestled just one kilometer from the iconic Medici walls surrounding Arezzo. The estate's rich history dates back to 1452, when a vineyard was sold by Francesco de’ Bacci to fund the creation of “The Legend of the True Cross” frescoes by renowned artist Piero della Francesca in the family chapel at the Church of San Francesco. After World War II, the ancestral farm evolved into a family-run vineyard and winery, expanding to include wine bottling in the 1960s. Today, the estate spans 950 hectares, with over 300 hectares dedicated to DOCG vineyards.
The land, characterized by its rolling hills and altitudes between 250 and 450 meters above sea level, features marly soil with a medium texture. Sangiovese grapes dominate the vineyards, making up 75% of the varietals, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Chardonnay. Tenute San Fabiano has gained recognition in the fine wine industry, exporting its wines and olive oil to countries including the United States, England, Belgium, Denmark, Brazil, Singapore, South Korea, China, and Hong Kong.
In addition to its exceptional wines, Tenute San Fabiano offers a unique hospitality experience in its elegant historic villas, built in the 16th and 17th centuries. These luxurious accommodations provide a perfect setting for wine lovers and travelers seeking to enjoy the beauty of Tuscany.
