Francesco Gioffreda

The Climb

The early discipline came from outside the cellar: Francesco Gioffreda worked as a manager at a big international company before turning fully to wine. That business background now sits behind the decisions made at Borgo Casa al Vento, where he is owner and winemaker.

Today

At Borgo Casa al Vento, the job is both ownership and production, with Francesco Gioffreda carrying the same managerial habit of structure into the wine itself. The result is a role rooted in central Tuscany, with the estate and the bottle tied together under one hand.

In Their Words “To me Borgo Casa al Vento represents all of this, what I like to define … the essence of the Chianti.”

Recognition

The recognition here sits in the title and the place: owner and winemaker at Casa al Vento in Gaiole in Chianti, Italy. Francesco Gioffreda’s public identity for the work stays local, direct, and fixed to central Tuscany.
