Castello dei Rampolla

Castello dei Rampolla is a 100-acre estate in Panzano, in the Chianti region of Tuscany. It has been owned by the Di Napoli Rampolla family since the early 18th century. Sangiovese is the primary grape grown, but there are also parcels of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Traminer, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Malvasia. Chianti Classico is the estate’s signature wine. It also makes several Cabernet Sauvignon-based Super Tuscans and a white blend. Gambero Rosso, Italy’s leading wine journal, notes that the estate “is characterized by innovative and rigorous production strategies…(and) makes what have become veritable cult wines that display outstanding consistency and authenticity.”
