Our wine is produced to an old Chianti tradition using the typical mix of red (Sangiovese and Colorino) and white grapes (Trebbiano and Malvasia). In modern wine production the white grapes have been abandoned so as to produce a richer, more full bodied wine. For this reason it is increasingly difficult to find wines like ours. Its freshness and simplicity is much appreciated by local people and wine drinkers in general.
Cafaggio vinegar is produced from the fermentation of the Chianti DOCG grapes in oak casks for 6 months to a year. Once the transformation has taken place, the vinegar is allowed to mature for another year, again in oak casks. When an acidity level of 7,5 % is reached, the vinegar is filtered and bottled.
Cafaggio honey is produced, mainly for our own consumption, to traditional methods. It is only extracted for centrifuging and decanting and is not filtered or treated. For this reason it has an intense perfume and creamy consistency. It is much appreciated by our guests at breakfast-time, when it is delicious with ricotta and pecorino cheese.
