Fattoria Santo Stefano

Welcome to
Fattoria Santo Stefano

Ours is a family-run business, owned by the Bendinelli family since 1961. In the heart of Chianti Classico, we produce wine and extra virgin olive oil, welcoming travellers from all over the world to an authentic, panoramic location steeped in history.
Just 30 minutes from Florence, 40 minutes from San Gimignano and about an hour from Siena, Pisa and Lucca, the farm is the ideal starting point for relaxing or exploring the main art cities of Tuscany.
The villa-farm, an ancient rural complex located on the slopes of Monte Collegalle at 380 metres above sea level, takes its name from the nearby church of Santo Stefano a Collegalle, documented since 1137.
Whether you choose to stay, taste or simply visit our farm, you will always find a genuine welcome, landscapes that regenerate the soul and flavours that tell the story of our land.

Purchase

Our wines come from vineyards stretching across the hills of Chianti Classico, in the municipality of Greve in Chianti. Here, Sangiovese, together with other native varieties such as Colorino and international grape varieties such as Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, finds its most authentic and harmonious expression. Our extra virgin olive oil, with its fruity aroma and balanced taste, is obtained from Tuscan cultivars – Frantoio, Leccino and Moraiolo – pressed immediately after harvesting to best preserve their aromas and fragrances.

Stay with us

Experience the authentic atmosphere of the Tuscan countryside by staying in one of our cosy apartments, furnished in typical local style, or in our manor house surrounded by the greenery of Chianti. From here, you can admire a unique and breathtaking view of the pine trees, olive groves and rolling hills of Tuscany. During your stay, you can enjoy the Tuscan experience: cook traditional dishes right in your apartment or let yourself be pampered by our services, such as breakfast prepared with local products or our cooking classes dedicated to local cuisine.
