It is now one of the leading producers in the Chianti Colli Fiorentini zone. With 100 hectares of hillside vineyards (in both Colli Fiorentini and around neighbouring Chianti Classico, near San Casciano), Uggiano produces classic and classy Tuscan reds from the region's principal grape varieties. A core of quality runs through an unfussy, practical and exceptionally well-priced range, from bright entry level Chianti to some impressive Riserva wines. In 2015, the Losapio family sold the company to Uggiano’s young but experienced management team, including commercial manager Giacomo Fossati and Daniele Prosperi, winemaker for the past 12 vintages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-inner  producer-sustainability-slice\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"two-col-inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"half full-stack left-align-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"desc-inner\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Note on Sustainability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUggiano have achieved Equalitas Sustainable certification which applies to the winery and all wines bottled there. Equalitas certification is a sustainability standard specifically for the wine sector, evaluating companies on their environmental, economic, and social impact. It assesses a company's commitment to sustainability through measurable indicators and requires an independent audit for certification. The certification focuses on areas like carbon footprint, water footprint, biodiversity, and social responsibility, ensuring transparency and progress towards sustainable practices in the wine industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"half full-img center-align-content\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/boutinot.com\/manufacturer\/sustainability\/900.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wenlock Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56579309699416,"sku":null,"price":11.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/2243\/6184\/files\/IUG017.png?v=1769115400","url":"https:\/\/wenlockcellars.co.uk\/products\/uggiano-la-scoperta-riserva-chianti-docg-2022","provider":"Wenlock Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
