Castello Dei Rampolla

Nestled in the renowned Conca d’Oro of Panzano, Castello dei Rampolla is one of the most revered estates in Chianti Classico, blending centuries-old tradition with groundbreaking innovation. Owned by the di Napoli family since 1739, the estate has played a pivotal role in shaping the region’s modern winemaking identity. In 1980, Castello dei Rampolla was among the first to introduce Cabernet Sauvignon into Chianti, forever changing the perception of Tuscan wines with the release of Sammarco, a bold and structured red that challenged the norms of the time.

Committed to sustainability and harmony with nature, the estate adopted biodynamic farming in 1994, ensuring a deep connection between their vines and the surrounding environment. This low-intervention philosophy extends into the cellar, where wines undergo long aging in neutral oak, allowing them to develop their complexity and elegance naturally. Their portfolio includes the legendary Vigna d’Alceo, a wine that showcases the estate’s mastery in crafting age-worthy, powerful reds with remarkable finesse.

With a dedication to both tradition and innovation, Castello dei Rampolla continues to be a benchmark producer in Chianti Classico, proving that great winemaking is not just about heritage but also about pushing boundaries while staying true to the land. Their wines, known for their depth, structure, and longevity, remain some of the most sought-after in Tuscany, capturing the soul of this historic estate with every bottle.
