Castiglion del Bosco is an iconic estate with records dating back to the 11th century, as well as being another key participant in the creation of the Consorzio del Brunello di Montalcino. After many years of underperformance the winery was purchased in 2003 by fashion mogul, Massimo Ferragamo, who immediately began an extremely ambitious restoration project to return it to its former glory. Only the very best will do at Castiglion del Bosco, from the immaculate 62-hectares of south-east facing vines to the purpose-built state-of-the-art winery, as well as the combination of superstar winemaking team of Cecilia Leoneschi (pictured), and long-term consultant oenologist Beppe Caviola. In August 2023, the winemaking team was further bolstered with the announcement of Elena Penna and Luca Currado (formerly of the famous Piedmont producer. Vietti) as additional consultants with a particular focus on terroir. There is no expense spared in their quest to produce world-class Brunello di Montalcino, and as a result, Castiglion del Bosco has emerged from the shadows and rightfully taken its place on the world stage.

Modern Tuscany is a large, diverse region and the beauty of its rolling landscapes and charming nature pulls in the tourists year after year. Red wines of every quality are its vinous calling cards but large quantities of crisp, flavoursome whites and honeyed, sweet wines are also present. The warm Mediterranean climate is a significant factor in Tuscany's consistent ability to produce excellent grapes, thanks to the warm days and cool nights that help the wines get the right balance of sweetness and acidity. Italy's most important red grape, Sangiovese, is right at home in Tuscany and is the backbone of Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino. Around Bolgheri, the famously expensive 'Super Tuscans' have their home and producers such as Antinori and Sassicaia make their famous wines from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes.

Brunello means ‘little brown one’ and refers to the skin of the grape which is a clone of Sangiovese. The Climate here is warm and dry and the grapes are grown on the steep slopes surrounding the medieval walled city of Montalcino. The wines are high in acidity and tannins and often require further aging in the bottle to soften and develop richer more complex flavours and a smoother texture. Typical Brunello has aromas of red and black cherries, plums, olive, spice which continue onto the palate with underlying earthiness, subtle balsamic notes and a long finish.

Most famously used made for making the wines bearing the names Brunello di Montalcino and Chianti, it also is used to make varietal wines across Italy. Youthful Sangiovese wines will have soft strawberry and a light spiciness, but older, aged wines offer up sour cherries, tar and more complex savoury characteristics. The moderate tannin and high acidity allows for some ageing and the best wines have the capacity to demand high prices.
