📍 Where is Radda in Chianti and why is it so special?
Located between the provinces of Florence and Siena, Radda in Chianti sits at an altitude of 400 to 600 meters above sea level. This elevation creates a cool microclimate, with significant day-night temperature shifts, ideal for slow, balanced ripening of the grapes 🍇.
The soils here are rich in galestro, a flaky, mineral-rich rock that gives wines structure, freshness, and aging potential. This, combined with elevation and ideal sun exposure, makes Montemaggio’s vineyards a perfect place to produce elegant, complex wines that authentically reflect the terroir.
