Special wines from Barone Ricasoli
In 1141, Brolio Castle came into the hands of the Ricasoli family, whose descendant, Baron Bettino Ricasoli, developed the formula for their famous Chianti in 1872. Today, Barone Ricasoli is the largest winery in the Chianti Classico area. Located in the municipalities of Gaiole and Castelnuovo Berardenga, it is surrounded by 1,200 hectares of valleys, hills, oak and chestnut forests, 235 hectares of vineyards, and 26 hectares of olive groves, all bathed in the changing weather and beauty of this central Chianti region. Francesco Ricasoli, Bettino's great-grandson and 32nd Baron, has been at the helm of the family business since 1993, renewing the quality and personality that made Brolio wines famous by making the most of the land's unique history. With many award-winning wines renowned worldwide, Barone Ricasoli's research and exploration continues, as new labels are constantly developed that reinvent both the culture of winemaking and the art of drinking. In the 1980s, a small three-hectare vineyard was planted with Chardonnay grapes. This successful grape variety produces powerful and interesting white wines worldwide. The Tuscan climate is ideal for this grape variety, but the grapes must be harvested on time. After being harvested by hand, the Chardonnay grapes are gently pressed. The wine is then fermented in oak barrels. Finally, it is aged in barrels for six to eight months, after which the wine is bottled.Enjoy a beautiful bouquet of aromas from Torricella Brolio
