Buy or order Barone Ricasoli wine

Tens of thousands of Dutch tourists visit the dazzling beauty of Tuscany every year. We understand. A drive through perhaps Italy's most iconic region reveals the incredible beauty of this magnificent area. Narrow hillside roads lined with graceful cypress trees reveal the ever-changing vistas, from idyllic mountain villages to stunning olive groves. As you approach the Chianti Classico region, the majestic Brolio Castle suddenly appears. This medieval castle forms the basis of the popular Ricasoli wines.

The Ricasoli wines from Tuscany

This castle came into the hands of the Ricasoli family as early as 1142. Many barons strolled through the richly decorated corridors of this impressive castle. The entire estate encompasses an impressive 1200 hectares. Standing in one of the towers, the view will delight you. Dense forests of oak and chestnut trees, idyllic olive groves, and vines as far as the eye can see. Simply fantastic. In this castle, the Ricasoli family laid the foundation for Chianti wines. Thanks to a special formula developed in 1841 by Bettino Ricasoli, Chianti wines earned a special place in Italian viticulture.

The current owner is Francesco Ricasoli, the 32nd baron. His refreshing approach to winemaking has propelled Ricasoli back to the top. Their Chianti wines are still in high demand today. For example, the Barone Ricasoli Chianti Reserva Rocca Guicciarda has been a top-tier wine for decades. Or how about the Barone Ricasoli Brolio Chianti Riserva, named after the castle, which tops many wine lists.
