Principe Corsini

What Principe Corsini does

Principe Corsini is a family-owned Tuscan wine and olive oil producer operating two estates: Villa Le Corti in the Chianti Classico region (San Casciano Val di Pesa, ~15 km south of Florence) and Tenuta Marsiliana in the Maremma (Manciano, Grosseto). The legal entity, Le Corti S.p.A. Società Agricola, is registered in Florence and has been managed by Duccio Corsini since 1992, when he re-launched the brand with the 1993 harvest. The Corsini family holds Villa Le Corti since 1363 and operates a three-level underground cellar built in the 1600s; the estate spans 230 hectares including 50 hectares of vineyards and 63 hectares of olive groves with over 13,000 trees. Tenuta Marsiliana adds 200 hectares with 20 hectares of vineyards planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot.

The product portfolio centers on Sangiovese-based Chianti Classico DOCG wines (Le Corti, Cortevecchia Riserva, Don Tommaso Gran Selezione, Zac Gran Selezione) from Villa Le Corti, and Super Tuscan IGT wines (Marsiliana, Birillo, Vermentino) from Tenuta Marsiliana, plus the Fico Wine biodynamic sub-brand (Fico and Per Filo Sangiovese). Olive oil offerings include EVO and DOP Chianti Classico oils plus Moraiolo and Frantoio monocultivars, produced in the family's artisanal frantoio with manual harvesting and cold extraction within six hours. Production is certified organic since 2015 (olive oil since 2007), with biodynamic certification for the Fico project; DOCG and DOP designations underpin regulatory protection.

Revenue is generated through direct-to-consumer e-commerce (principecorsini.com) shipping to 60+ countries, the Digiwine B2B platform for Ho.Re.Ca operators, on-site Enoteca Le Corti, the Osteria Le Corti restaurant, guided tours and tastings (€38-€65/person), cooking classes (€180-€220/person), accommodations at Le Gugliaie and Lo Sperone farmhouses, and event hosting. Wine pricing spans €11-€103.50 and olive oil €12.50-€27. Wine trade fair participation (Vinitaly, Chianti Classico Collection) supports B2B channel development, and the company has accumulated multiple Gambero Rosso, James Suckling, and Jancis Robinson accolades through 2024.

Direct peers

• Marchesi de' Frescobaldi: Historic Florentine wine family operating multiple Tuscan estates (including Nipozzano, Pomino, Castelgiocondo) with a comparable centuries-old heritage, Chianti Classico and Super-Tuscan portfolio, and significant hospitality and B2B distribution. Most analogous direct peer in scale, history, and product mix.
• Marchesi Antinori: Iconic 600+ year-old Tuscan wine dynasty producing Tignanello and Solaia, with extensive Chianti Classico and Super-Tuscan holdings, hospitality experiences, and global distribution. Closely mirrors Principe Corsini on heritage narrative and product portfolio breadth.
• Ruffino: Major Chianti-focused producer (now owned by Constellation Brands) with strong DOCG Chianti Classico and Riserva offerings, plus international distribution. Comparable in core Chianti product positioning though at materially larger scale.
• Castello Banfi: Tuscan estate in Montalcino producing Brunello and Super-Tuscans, with integrated hospitality, restaurant, and on-property accommodation offerings very similar to Villa Le Corti's experiential stack. Strong parallel in estate-as-destination model.
• Biondi-Santi: Historic Italian wine producer (Brunello di Montalcino) with multi-generational family ownership, heritage cellar, DOCG focus, and premium price-point positioning. Analogous in family ownership, prestige narrative, and limited-production premium positioning.
• Tenuta San Guido: Producer of Sassicaia, the original Super-Tuscan, operating a single estate in Bolgheri with limited production and very high price points. Direct comparability on premium Super-Tuscan production and estate-driven brand equity.
• Masi Agricola: Historic Italian wine group focused on Amarone and Venetian wines, family-controlled, publicly listed, with hospitality and global export presence. Comparable in heritage-driven Italian wine positioning and family ownership structure.
• Luna Nascente / Podere Le Ripi (representative boutique Tuscan estate): Small-to-mid Tuscan wine estates with organic/biodynamic practices, single-estate production, and integrated hospitality offerings. Representative of the competitive set of mid-size Tuscan producers that share Principe Corsini's boutique positioning.

Regional players

• Planeta: Sicilian family-owned wine producer with multi-estate portfolio, integrated hospitality (La Foresteria), olive oil production, and significant DTC and Ho.Re.Ca presence. Comparable diversified Italian family wine-and-hospitality model, though in a different region.

Emerging players

• Egon Müller (Egon Müller Scharzhof): Multi-generational family-owned German wine estate producing ultra-premium Riesling with similarly constrained production, strong critical reputation, and pricing power. Useful parallel on family-driven, allocation-based premium wine economics.
