The Podere dellâAnselmo is located in the splendour of the Chianti lands, a territory that has always been devoted to full-bodied wines.

The Forconi family has a long history, already working in the vineyards of Montespertoli in the early 19th century.

Once the right degree of ripeness is reached, the grapes are harvested by hand and also hand-selected. It is a red wine made from Malvasia, Colombana and Trebbiano grapes grown on the Tuscan hills, 7 km from Montespertoli and 10 km from San Casciano in Val di Pesa, in the vineyards in the immediate vicinity of the Podere. On a hillside facing east, on soil made up of calcareous conglomerates and gravel.
