The Farm
Casa alle Vacche is situated a few kilometres from San Gimignano, surrounded by the wonderful landscape offered by the Tuscan country, in a particularly good area for the cultivation of the vines and olives.The traditional farm, owned by the Ciappi family for generations, expands for 25 hectars of vineyards and 3 hectars of olive trees.
Thanks to the nature of the soil and its ideal position, high quality grapes are picked and transformed using our experience, allowing us to produce the excellence of wines such as Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Chianti Colli Senesi and red and white Toscana IGT.
Our farm which has been awarded the “Agriqualità” by the Tuscan Region, uses integrated cultivation techniques, in respect of the environment and of natural balance.
OUR WINES
Character, heart and soul of our wines are explained by their birth in the distant past, from a “family” concept of the vineyard, the attention dedicated at every stage: from the care of the grapes, the harvest, and culminating in the winemaking.
In recent years, we are focusing mainly on native autochthonous vines, a “return to origins” where ancient cultures meet modern technology.

OIL: A PASSION!
From the second week of October onwards the olives obtained from our thousand trees are harvested by hand and then pressed within 24 hours.
The native olive varieties Leccino, Frantoio and Moraiolo and traditional processing yield an extra virgin olive oil first cold pressing.
Our oil is characterized by a very low acidity and a balanced taste, with intense fruity and aromatic notes reminiscent of artichoke and cardoon.
Ideal with traditional Tuscan dishes, in particular as a dressing for soups and dishes of vegetables, perfect on garlic bread.
It is ideal with traditional Tuscan dishes, particularly as a dressing for soup, legumes, and naturally perfect for ‘fettunta’ (Tuscan garlic bread).
