THE WINE
With the 'Coniale', a pure Cabernet Sauvignon from Tuscany, Castellare di Castellina has been measuring its production capabilities against the rest of the world since 1987. It starts with meticulous work in the vineyard to achieve both elegance and power in the same sip. Aged in barrique for 18 months and refined in the bottle for ten months, it is a red wine where the strong nuances of cabernet blend with the unique territorial characteristics of Chianti Classico. The result is a wine of absolute quality, perfect for the most important and formal occasions. It is a truly remarkable Cabernet. Limited edition, numbered bottles.
THE COMPANY
A historic company in Chianti Classico, Castellare di Castellina was established in its current form in 1968 following the merger of 5 different estates. A magical place where the vineyards, totaling 33 hectares, are perfectly integrated into the environment, surrounded by woods and other crops. A region where excellent exposure, good water drainage, mixed soils of calcareous marl, galestro, and little clay have always produced well-structured, intense wines suitable for long aging in the bottle. Since the late 1970s, the winery has been owned by entrepreneur Paolo Panerai, who immediately began a long research journey aimed at improving all its labels. A careful census of the vines, undertaken right after the purchase, allowed for the selection of the best Sangiovese variety for the Sodi di San Niccolò, the symbol wine of the company. Moreover, an experimental plot planted on the property in collaboration with the University of Milan and Florence and the Istituto di San Michele all'Adige enables ongoing research on the best clones as well as the production of selected vines for vineyard renewal. Over time, the world of Castellare di Castellina has grown; indeed, in 2004, in partnership with Les Domaines Baron de Rothschild-Lafite, Rocca di Frassinello was born in the heart of Maremma. A beautiful estate along the Tuscan coast where the best of Italy and France meet; a place where Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Shiraz coexist in perfect harmony, leading to the creation of wines of undeniable charm, intensity, and elegance. Reds that immediately appeal to a very diverse audience and whose project is completed with the construction of the new winery, a project designed by Renzo Piano. However, Paolo Panerai's adventure in the wine world does not stop solely in Tuscany. In Sicily, Feudi del Pisciotto and Gurra di Mare were later established. The first is located between Caltagirone and Piazza Armerina: about forty hectares of vineyards mainly cultivated with Nero d'Avola for a winery characterized by the historic palmento, where wine was already produced in the times of the Greeks and Romans. The second is near Porto Palo, the ancient port of Selinunte, in one of the richest historical areas of Sicily, where warm and captivating white wines are produced.
