Located in Gaiole in Chianti, in the heart of Tuscany, Castello di Brolio is the historic cradle of the Ricasoli family, active in viticulture since 1141, making it Italy's oldest winery. The visionary Bettino Ricasoli was behind the original Chianti Classico formula, created in 1872. Since 1993, Francesco Ricasoli has been at the helm of the estate with passion, breathing new life into it through an approach combining respect for tradition, technical innovation and a scientific approach. Thanks to this commitment, Ricasoli has become a leading player in contemporary Chianti Classico. Today, the estate cultivates more than 240 hectares of certified sustainable vineyards, producing wines that are internationally renowned for their finesse, depth and precise expression of terroir.
