Winestillery was born of the radical notion of merging a winery and a distillery, giving birth to the first and only “Vinstilleria” in the world. Winestillery combines the highest oenological knowledge of the Chianti Classico Region terroir and the finest international arts of distillation. Using our holistic production philosophy each spirit is created “harvest to glass” in alignment with our Grape to Glass Manifesto conceived of by Enrico Chioccioli Altadonna, co-owner and co-founder of Chioccioli Altadonna Family Estate.
Born from the tradition of fine winemaking, our symbol of a chalice and grapes represents our production heartbeat and the foundation of our Grape to the Glass Manifesto:
I. Every Winestillery product must be conceived, distilled, and bottled by Chioccioli Altadonna Family Estate.
II. The primary ingredient of our spirits must be grapes or wine. If a spirit, according to the law, can not be produced from these ingredients, all the other steps of the production must be “wine-centered” and use traditional elements of winemaking.
III. Only traditional Tuscan botanicals will be used.
IV. All distillation must take place in the Chioccioli Altadonna Family Estate facilities, using our custom-made Winestillery under the guidance and secret recipes of the Master Distiller.
V. Bottling, maturation, and aging of each Winestillery product must be done on location.
VI. Artificial aromas and additives that alter the purity of the product are not permitted. Only natural color and natural flavors are allowed.
VII. Each Winestillery product is non-chill-filtered to keep the full integrity of its premium Ingredients for a superior taste.
VIII. Winestillery lives and evolves thanks to experimentation and dialectic between the highest oenological knowledge of the Chianti Classico Region terroir and the finest art of distillation.
