Il Barlettaio was founded in 1995 by the determination and perseverance of Francesco Bertozzi to revive the family vineyards and produce a Chianti Classico with a deeply Raddese soul.
Today, the winery is certified organic and extends over 3 hectares of vineyards and an equal amount dedicated to olive cultivation at an altitude of about 500 meters above sea level.
The soils of the area consist mainly of Tuscan sandstone, alberese, and galestro, which are sandstones, clays, and limestones. These give the wines a very elegant tannic structure and an intriguing savory taste that significantly prolongs the persistence on the palate.
The production amounts to around 12,000 bottles per year.

L'Acero (The maple tree) springs from a vivid desire, hidden away for years—a dream that finds its wings, an idea that takes root. After three decades devoted to nurturing and experimenting with others’ creations, winemaker Mauro Bennati has finally chosen himself and his family as a new beginning. Here, he has crafted a wine that reflects the essence of the land it calls home, a wine that stirs emotions like the warm embrace of someone dear.

The name of this wine is insolvably linked to the characteristics of its provenance. Actually it descends from the strong gradient of the vineyards (erta = acclivity), which are located near the historical center of Radda in Chianti.L’Erta di Radda is a small family business which is run by Diego, who simultaneously takes care of everything, from trimming of the grape-vine to the commercialization of wine.
