Produced only in the best years, it is an iconic wine, a wine that leaves its mark, with its own personality; its salient features are its concentration and tannic structure. These prized bottles, carefully aged in the cellars at Brolio Castle, warm hearts and souls and offer extraordinary wine that conserves and increases in elegance and freshness even after many years of aging. Wine maker notes Castello di Brolio is our great wine, created from a meticulous selection of the best Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot grapes from the estate’s best vineyards. The grapes used for this wonderful selection come from vineyards facing south/southwest at 250 to 450 meters above sea level. Each lot of grapes is treated separately and meticulously, for these grapes are the expression of the finest locations, making them particularly rich in aromas and body.
Producer Ricasoli is the most representative wine producer in the Chianti Classico area. With its gentle hills, velvety valleys and thick woodlands of oaks and chestnuts, the 1,200 hectares of property include 235 hectares of vineyards and 26 of olive groves. This creates a continuous succession of colors and hues around the Brolio Castle, which is located within the town limits of Gaiole in Chianti. Since 1993, Baron Francesco Ricasoli has been guiding this central Tuscan company in innovative challenges. This has been done with the deepest respect for his renowned ancestors who have made this territory great, Bettino Ricasoli first and foremost. Francesco Ricasoli, current owner and President of the company, has generated new ideas and concepts to render the vineyards sustainable. The ongoing study of soil types and the clonal selection of the Brolio Sangiovese are among his greatest passions, and he has totally renovated the vineyards and completely mapped them. The new wines are therefore the expression of research carried out with the same scientific rigor of his illustrious ancestor but with a contemporary spirit, like a runner receiving the baton and carrying it forward with renewed energy.
