Renzo Marinai

Renzo Marinai is a distinguished producer of high-quality wine. Their deep commitment to artisanal practices and biodiversity led to the successful cultivation of olive oil and wheat.

Nestled in picturesque Chianti Tuscany, the hilly land benefits from fertile soil and a mild climate, making it the perfect location for growing nutritionally rich Senatore Cappelli wheat. Combining traditional agricultural methods with modern organic principles,  Renzo Marinai has become a symbol of excellence in sustainable farming.


The Art of Wheat Cultivation

The cultivation of Senatore Cappelli wheat at Renzo Marinai is a meticulous process aimed at maximizing quality while respecting tradition. This ancient wheat variety, known for its height and resilience, can grow up to 1.8 meters tall. The cultivation process begins with the careful planting of seeds between the olive trees to provide natural protection and ensure optimal growth conditions. Harvesting is carried out by hand to maintain the integrity of the wheat and to not do any harm to the olive trees surrounding the wheats.

The estate's commitment to organic farming is unwavering. Renzo Marinai holds a 100% organic certification, reflecting its dedication to sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship. By focusing on biodiversity, the estate contributes to the health of the ecosystem while producing superior-tasting products.
