San Giorgio a Lapi

CHIANTI – Strada di colle pinzuto 30 (SI)

Just 6 km from Siena, immersed in the poetic and permeating beauty of the Sienese countryside, the small church of San Giorgino has been placidly observing the vineyard and olive trees of the surrounding fields since 1109, which have been looked after by our family since 1977, where with love, tradition, dedication and innovative spirit we have produced wine and oil. We like to define our company as a harmoniously multifaceted reality that holds within it a myriad of souls. By fine-tuning each of the contrasting elements, like an orchestra, we create unique, recognizable, inviting and sincere products: symphonies of genuine flavours, rooted in the culture of the territory. This reality begins with our family: there are 8 of us and everyone contributes to the company with their own specializations, following the entire production process, from preparation in the vineyard to the last step of marketing.

Bianca Ghose Local Guide·28 recensioni·18 foto⭐⭐⭐⭐

All round fantastic experience of the wine tour and wine tasting. Starts at 11am, and lasts about 2.5/3 hours, includes a detailed explanation of the winery’s history and the wine making process. During the tasting, we experienced four wines, and we ended up buying a case of the reds and some of the white too, to be shipped to our house! Nice refreshing dessert wine too. Their olive oil was delicious as well. The light lunch of charcuteries is exceptional – simple, delicious, local products. We’d absolutely recommend this experience. PS – with global warming, July has become scorching hot in Italy, so you may wan to carry suncreen, hat or even an umbrella for the tour. Thank you Alberto and Valentina for hosting us! We had a lovely time at your winery.

The best winey experience ever. We fly all over the world and we always aim to go for wine tasting. This winery has an amazing wine but most important is the amazing staff. Waw waw waw I cannot recommend it enough
We arrived without booking but they were super helpful and understanding and gave us a table that was available then. Maya is nothing but amazing. Whatever I write here is nothing until you come and experience their service and wines.

Such a lovely little winery up the road from Siena. We chose this one instead of one of the larger ones because the family owned vineyards have always been our favorite. We booked a tour and tasting, which began at 11. Alberto, one of the sons, greeted us on the road as you pull up to the winery which I thought was a really nice touch. Alberto walked us down to the chapel, which has an amazing history to it which I won’t spoil. He answered all our questions about grapes and olives, and explained and showed us how the soil differed where we were compared to just up the road, and why the wines were different because of this. He showed us the steps on how they make the wine, from the first machine to the bottler. Then the tasting. 8 wines, pick 4, so it was perfect for two because we tried them all. Also, the food they serve with the tastings is AMAZING. Bruschetta, meats, cheeses. All of it was so local and so fresh, and having that while Alberto tells you about the wines and you are overlooking the vineyard was surreal. It was the perfect afternoon, and 40 euro a person which is such a steal. They also flat rate ship wine all over the world.

I would recommended to anyone that this winery is the perfect, small, local place to visit, and a must do in my list.

This is a great family fun vineyard who is both modern while keeping the traditional values of wine making. Our tasting was excellent by a passionate sommelier named Alberto who runs the vineyard with his family. Location is superb, a great place to watch the sun go down in beautiful Siena. Highly recommend doing the third red course tasting to understand the wines of the region as well as their brand new experimental wine without sulphites. Thanks again Alberto, we had a wonderful afternoon in your family sanctuary 🙂

Ms Valentina was such a lovely host who quickly turned out unpleasant welcome to a heart warming one. My partner and I just went to buy wines while wanting to drink a glass. She took such immense care of us and explained us the details of their bottles. I am quite happy with their no sulphites label and got a couple back home. We did not do the tour but seemed like couple of guys enjoyed it.
The prices are very nominal for bottles of wine and they even let us take time to walk around the vineyards and their church. Family owned vineyard of good standards.

Really good, not just wine tasting, but they showed us around the vines, the distilling process and the ageing casks. Then the food and wine was absolutely fantastic. Really recommend picking this one over the shorter experiences.

Amazing. Perfect tour, great guide and lovely wines. We bought a bottle to bring home. The tapas was nice as well. We absolutely loved it! I would say it’s price worthy for sure – you get the tour, wines and tapas include in the price. Thank you to our great guide Maja!

Had a wonderful wine tasting experience at San Giorgio a Lapi! The wines (and food) were very flavoursome and tasty, the view magnificent, and Benedict was a very welcoming and informative host.
We were also not pressured at all to buy anything and had a relaxing time. We’ll be back!
100% recommend visiting this winery!
