Monte Bernardi has the highest percentage of old vines of any commercially producing estate in Chianti Classico, including six hectares over 55 years old, and one extraordinary hectare planted in 1933, all thriving under the care of the vineyard team.

Their vineyards are acknowledged as one of the "grand cru" regions of Chianti Classico. Thanks to the abundance of rocky soils, high altitudes, optimal exposures, significant day and night temperature fluctuations, and proximity to the river Pesa, contribute to the farm’s unique microclimates.
