Castello Romitorio

Castello Romitorio represents one of the most recognizable interpretations of Montalcino, with a selection of wines that enhances Sangiovese and the most authentic identity of the territory. In this collection, you will find labels dedicated to Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino, expressions of a winery that has managed to combine roots, research, and stylistic continuity.

The history and territory of Montalcino

Founded in 1984 by Sandro Chia, Castello Romitorio was born with the aim of studying and promoting the DOCG and DOC designations of Montalcino. The historic vineyards, planted with ancient clones of Sangiovese, still occupy an important part of the estate today and contribute to remarkable biodiversity. Since 2006, with the arrival of Filippo Chia, the project has been enriched with a new winery and additional vineyards located between 200 and 400 meters above sea level, an ideal altitude range for obtaining wines of precision, freshness, and depth.

The style of Castello Romitorio wines

The selection in the collection highlights the character of Brunello di Montalcino in its various interpretations, from the most classic vintages to the Riserva versions, up to the Filo di Seta labels. The common imprint is that of structured, complex, and long-lived wines, but always readable in the fruit and the typical tension of Montalcino's Sangiovese. Alongside the Brunello, the Colto 2020 Rosso di Montalcino DOC offers a more immediate approach, while still maintaining coherence with the estate's style.
