About The Producer

Get ready for an exciting journey through the world of winemaking with Giampaolo Motta! This visionary was inspired by Bordeaux and left his family's leather business in Naples to head north to Chianti and learn the art of winemaking. After honing his skills in Chianti and Bordeaux, Giampaolo finally found his true home at La Massa in the Conca d'Oro of Panzano in Chianti, where he owns 27 hectares of vineyards that have been farmed since the 15th century. He quickly gained a reputation for producing high-quality wines with his first vintage of Giorgio Primo, followed by the release of La Massa, both of which were immediately embraced by wine lovers. Fast forward to 2008 and Giampaolo teams up with his good friend and renowned winemaker Stephane Derenoncourt to take La Massa to new heights. The two practice "logical" agriculture, using sustainable methods such as green manure, "sexual confusion" as a pesticide, and minimal use of chemicals. In the winery, they utilize natural yeasts and minimal sulfurs to preserve the ecological balance of La Massa. Get ready to taste the magic of Giampaolo and Stephane's collaboration in every sip of their expertly crafted, high-quality wines. These wines embody their passion and commitment to the earth, the fruit, and the art of winemaking. Cheers!
