Marco Cannoni
In 1998, Marco Cannoni assumed full-time responsibility for his family’s generation-spanning polycultural farm at the foot of the Pratomagno mountain range northwest of Arezzo. Farming for Marco has always come naturally and he eschews any chemical inputs in the vineyard. In addition to wine, Podere Giocoli is known for its organic vegetables, fruits, and honey. Grape production is devoted primarily to Sangiovese with Canaiolo, Colorino, Malvasia and Trebbiano also planted. Marco’s Chianti in fiaschi—the traditional straw basket used to transport the fragile and often round-bottomed hand blown glass bottles common in pre-industrial Europe—is a juicy and delicious red wine made with very little added sulfites.
