Twenty-five hectares of vineyards managed entirely in compliance with sustainable agricultural practices, the soils of which have been united since their formation, originating from the Chianti massif, by a large quantity of compact limestone resting on a sandstone base.
This type of soil restrains the vigor of the plant, lengthens the vegetative cycle, and enhances the structure of Chianti. Our vineyards range in altitude from 280 to 480 meters above sea level and are situated in three different subzones within the municipality of Gaiole in Chianti.

La Massa, a gem in the heart of the Chianti Classico. 25 hectares of vineyards facing south in the splendid Panzano "Conca d'Oro". Documents tell the fascinating story of wine and oil produced since the fifteenth century; at the end of the 18th century, the then called Podere di Massa became a possession of the curia of Fiesole, and later part of the "Bonifazio Hospital of the city of Florence". Giampaolo Motta took over it in 1992, starting a long work of restoring the vineyards and cellars. "Giorgio Primo" is the flagship wine and nowadays it is produced with the IGT denomination.
