Our opinion

The soul of Brunello at the CastelGiocondo Estate

Imagine yourself in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma, where history and wine intertwine. I invite you to a privileged immersion at the CastelGiocondo Estate, a domain where every stone and every vine tells a part of the history of the famous Brunello di Montalcino. It is an experience I loved, a true journey through time and flavors.

Discovery of an exceptional wine heritage

Your adventure will begin with a fascinating dive into the history of the Frescobaldi family, pioneers in Brunello production. You will discover the emblematic role of CastelGiocondo, this ancient 12th-century fortress, in the birth of this mythical wine. A guided tour will then take you through the estate, revealing its unique features and its breathtaking Tuscan landscape, between vineyards and olive groves.

After this enriching exploration, time for relaxation and indulgence. You will have the privilege of tasting three emblematic wines from the Frescobaldi collection: the famous Brunello di Montalcino, accompanied by a red wine and a white wine. To complete this sensory experience, a generous platter of local charcuterie and cheeses, typical of Tuscany, will be served to you, along with a tasting of their Laudemio Frescobaldi extra virgin olive oil. A symphony of flavors awaits you, a true tribute to the terroir.

A refined immersion in the heart of Montalcino

This experience is perfect for you if you seek to understand the very essence of Tuscan wine, beyond simple tasting. It is an invitation to explore a place steeped in history, where the wine-growing tradition is passed down from generation to generation in an elegant and intimate setting. If you are passionate about heritage, the rolling landscapes of the Maremma and authentic flavors, this visit to CastelGiocondo is an unmissable stop on your stay in Tuscany. A true gem for lovers of the Italian art of living.

Tasting a Brunello in this ancient Frescobaldi fortress is something grandiose, but a connoisseur's tip: above all don't skip their Laudemio olive oil!
