La Lama

Welcome to La Lama Winery, nestled in the scenic hills of Senese Chianti, at an elevation of 350 meters above sea level. Established in 1969 by Giulio Campani, the winery has remained a cherished family estate ever since.

For decades, the Campani family has been dedicated to producing exceptional wines, including the iconic Chianti Classico Sottol’aia and Chianti Classico Riserva Terzo Movimento. These wines are crafted with care, spending at least three years in hand-selected oak barrels. While the vineyards are modest—spanning just three acres—the family pays meticulous attention to every aspect of viticulture, from delicate blooming to manual harvesting and winemaking.

Aging takes place in a natural, ancient cave using large oak barrels and tonneaux, with Tiziana Atzeni, Giulio’s daughter-in-law, overseeing the process.

Visitors are welcome to tour the cave and taste the wines, all with a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. For those seeking a more intimate experience, private lunches, dinners, and events are available. At La Lama Winery, tradition, innovation, and family combine to create wines that truly stand the test of time.

Terroir

Chianti Classico

The terroir of this particular part of Chianti Classico is deeply influenced by its elevation, soil composition, and climate, creating wines with great structure, finesse, and balance. Situated in the hills of central Tuscany, the vineyards benefit from higher altitudes, which provide a cooler growing environment compared to lower-lying areas of the region. This results in longer ripening periods, allowing the grapes—especially Sangiovese—to develop complex aromatics while retaining fresh acidity.

The soils here are predominantly Galestro, a type of friable schistous marl, mixed with limestone and clay, offering excellent drainage and contributing to the minerality and depth of the wines. The Mediterranean climate is moderated by the altitude and surrounding forests, ensuring warm days but cool nights, which enhances the vibrancy and aromatic intensity of the wines. These conditions lead to expressions of Sangiovese that are elegant yet powerful, with fine tannins, bright red fruit, floral notes, and a distinct earthy character.

This terroir embodies the essence of Chianti Classico, producing wines that balance tradition and refinement, with a strong sense of place and aging potential.

Region

Toscana

Tuscany’s terroir is defined by its rolling hills, ancient soils, and a Mediterranean climate that varies across the region's diverse landscapes. The soils are rich in limestone, clay, and schist, particularly in the Chianti Classico and Montalcino areas, offering excellent drainage and contributing to the wines' structure and mineral complexity. The climate, characterized by warm summers and cool nights, allows for balanced ripening, preserving both acidity and aromatic intensity in the grapes. The region benefits from significant diurnal temperature variation, particularly in the higher elevations, which helps retain freshness in the wines. This terroir is particularly suited for Sangiovese, the backbone of many Tuscan wines, but also supports a wide variety of other grape varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah. The wines from Tuscany are known for their elegance, complexity, and age-worthiness, showcasing a balance between ripe fruit, structure, and the unique mineral character of the region.
