Castiglion del Bosco is one of the largest and most storied estates in Montalcino, as well as one of the founding members of the Brunello di Montalcino Wine Consortium in 1967, one of the first Italian wines to achieve DOC and DOCG status.

Massimo and Chiara Ferragamo have owned the estate since 2003. A magical place, the estate extends across 2,000 hectares nestled in the Val d’Orcia, a UNESCO World Heritage site, with 62 hectares of vineyard.

The core of the production is showcased by 4 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG labels, including the exclusive limited-edition Zodiac, the riserva Millecento, the cru Campo del Drago.

Castiglion del Bosco also produces Rosso di Montalcino Gauggiole, Chardonnay IGT Toscana, along with extra-virgin olive oil, grappa and honey.

The winery arranges a selection of year-round tours, from Brunello tastings to the art of cheese pairing, as well as select vertical tastings with the oldest of vintages and an annual event to experience first-hand the harvest.
