GRAN CRU TOUR - Castello Di Brolio

GRAN CRU TOUR
An exclusive and in-depth tour to discover the oldest winery in Italy
(Private tour)
The tour begins at the ancient Brolio Castle which bears witness to the long and fascinating
history of the Ricasoli family. The barons have made fundamental contributions to the
political history of Italy and the agricultural and enological development in the Chianti
Classico area. After, the tour takes you to our incredible Cru vineyards, the most important in
the estate. You will learn about the multifaceted soils, climate conditions, zoning projects and
the research and selection of the Sangiovese biotypes.
Our state-of-the-art vinification area combines productive functionality with an aesthetic
environment to create an ideal facility for the production of excellent wines. The wines are
then aged in barrels in the underground "barriccaia" located in the adjacent wine cellar.
After understanding the philosophy and history of this estate, the tour concludes with a
tasting in a private room of an exclusive selection of our wines. After the tour you have a
reservation at our restaurant, Osteria del Castello where our chef Franco Sangiacomo will let
you discover the authentic Tuscan cuisine in a beautiful and relaxing environment, immersed
in the magic English woods at the foot of the castle.
