Producer Information
Barone Ricasoli is the largest and oldest wine estate in the Chianti Classico region and is one of the four oldest businesses in the world. Based at the famous Castello di Brolio in Gaiole, it is known for its top-quality Sangiovese-dominant wines, and has a reputation for fair pricing. The estate has around 235 hectares (580 acres) of vineyards in its grounds, which surround the Castello di Brolio, stretching across the communes of Gaiole and Castelnuovo Berardenga. The cellars are situated at the foot of the castle and combine the traditional with the new in terms of winemaking. Ricasoli’s wines are vinified in small, gravity-fed steel vats, which allow vineyard lots to be kept separate. Ricasoli’s flagship wine is the Gran Selezione Chianti Classico, sourced from various plots across the estate. The blend combines 80 percent Sangiovese, with 10 percent each of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Other important wines in the portfolio include the Coledilà Chianti Classico, a varietal Sangiovese from a single vineyard, and Casalferro, a single-vineyard Merlot. All three wines are matured in oak for 18 months.
