About the estate
The Tenuta di Lilliano estate is located in Castellina in Chianti, Tuscany, and looks back on a history dating back to the Middle Ages. The family purchased the property in 1920, and the bottling and sale of wines was initiated in 1958 by Princess Eleonora Ruspoli Berlingieri. Today, the winery is managed by the current owners, Giulio and Pietro Ruspoli. The estate's portfolio includes wines from the Chianti Classico DOCG, Toscana IGT, and Vin Santo del Chianti Classico DOC denominations.
The eno directory lists 7 wines, mostly from Sangiovese and Merlot.
