What grows here
Capraia e Limite
17 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Spanning the Florentine metropolitan hills as a scattered municipality, Capraia e Limite harbors a distinct viticultural microclimate hosting 17 protected denominations. Here, a single verified producer actively champions this terrain's heritage, crafting the rare Bianco dell'Empolese DOC, a Trebbiano-based white wine limited to a narrow zone of 6 municipalities. Alongside it, the local slopes yield the robust Chianti DOCG. This specific geographic transition from alluvial plains to steep Tuscan ridges shapes the grapes, allowing this small community to bottle highly localized, authentic profiles that represent the true historical flavor of the lower Arno valley.
