About Winery and Wines
Today it is the largest winery in the Chianti Classico area: Brolio Castle, where Baron Bettino Ricasoli invented the Chianti formula in 1872, is surrounded by 1,200 hectares in the communes of Gaiole and Castelnuovo Berardenga. Valleys, hills, woods of oak and chestnut trees, 235 hectares of vineyards and 26 hectares of olive groves, all enjoying the beauty and the wide variety of soils and climate in this central Chianti area. Francesco Ricasoli has been at the helm of the family business since 1993 and has renewed the quality and personality of great Brolio wines, experimenting and making the most of the unique characteristics of the land and its history. New labels are coming into existence and the already known wines, which have won awards all over the world, are being perfected: Barone Ricasoli’s research continues and gives a whole new meaning to the culture of winemaking and the art of drinking.
We are one of the few wineries in the Chianti Classico area capable of producing wines with personality that are very different from one another, though all produced in the same area. The credit lies in its multifaceted-nature that allows us to bring out very different characteristics of a particular variety as well as its natural flair for quality. It is a very old concept: the Romans called it ‘genius loci’, today we talk about terroir.
