Fattoria
di Rodáno
Once serving as a resting place for pilgrims
traveling to Rome, the medieval Fattoria di Rodano sprawls
over 100 hectares in Chianti Classico’s eminent Castellina
subzone. The Pozzesi family acquired the farm in the 18th
century, but only in 1967 did they begin to take advantage
of the excellent vineyard land they possessed. Enrico Pozzesi
and winemaker Giulio Gambelli help run the estate while
the owner, Enrico’s father Vittorio, divides his time
between the winery and his duties as president of the Consortium
of Chianti Classico. Made from the fruit of the treasured
Viacosta vineyard site, the Super Tuscan Monna Claudia brings
a new interpretation of the high standards of the estate.
Named for Vittorio’s daughter Claudia, this highly
concentrated Sangiovese-Cabernet Sauvignon is made only
in great vintages.
