3 natural spots in Tuscany, editor-picked by Cork & Curve. All dietary guides in Tuscany.
Pacina ★ 4.6
Chianti Classico · Localita Pacina, 53019 Castelnuovo Berardenga, Italy
Tiezzi-Borsa family estate east of Siena, a registered VinNatur member. Long macerations, native yeasts, no fining or filtration, minimal sulfur. Wines like Pacina, Donesco and La Cerretina are reference points for Tuscan natural Sangiovese.
Tip: Pacina is also a working farm with cereals, pulses and olive oil; a visit takes a full half-day.
Podere Le Boncie ★ 4.6
Chianti Classico · Loc. San Felice, Castelnuovo Berardenga 53019, Italy
Giovanna Morganti's three-hectare Castelnuovo Berardenga estate. Le Trame, the estate's only wine, is unoaked Sangiovese-led IGT Toscana (left the DOCG in 2012 in protest at wood-fashion rules), made from meticulously farmed organic fruit.
Tip: Allocations move via Rosenthal Wine Merchant; cellar visits by referral only.
Massa Vecchia ★ 4.5
Maremma · Localita Rocche 53, 58024 Massa Marittima, Italy
Pioneer natural-wine estate above Massa Marittima. Founded by Fabrizio Niccolaini in the 1980s, biodynamic since 2004, run today by Francesca Sfondrini.
Tip: The rose and the Vermentino offer the natural lineage at its most approachable; reds need decanting and tend toward funkier registers.
