Tenuta CastelGiocondo
Brunello di Montalcino
Montalcino
CastelGiocondo Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is crafted from a blend of diverse soils, producing a wine with great complexity that evolves over time. The estate's ideal conditions—southwest-facing vineyards, altitudes of 300-400 meters, and well-drained soils—create the perfect environment for Sangiovese. The wine has a bright ruby-red color and an aromatic bouquet of red fruits like raspberry, blackcurrant, and pomegranate, with floral notes of violet and rose. Spicy hints of white pepper, star anise, and toasted nuances complement the dense tannins and mineral finish.

Ripe al Convento Brunello Riserva
Montalcino
Ripe al Convento’s name signifies both the ripeness that the Sangiovese grapes are able to achieve and the almost sacred single-vineyard site where they are grown. Sitting on the highest hills of the CastelGiocondo estate at 450 meters above sea level, this small single vineyard is exposed to the warm afternoon sun, marly soils and bracing Mediterranean winds. Aged an extra year in wood, Ripe al Convento is not only a reserve wine by law–it is the ultimate expression of the estate.
