In 1988 the late Bernd Mattheis, a German wine merchant from Tübingen and his wife Heide bought the Fattoria Ispoli accomplishing a life-long dream, transforming the existing small estate into a prestigious producer of fine Chianti Classico and other quality wines, pioneering, among the first in the area the use of Certified Organic techniques. This had been implemented with the collaboration of a full time Viticulturist and Oenologist Francesco Palombi that continues to this day to persue this mission today with Bernd´s son and daughter, Marian and Mareike and their respective families.
