Vineyard Info
Our Filicheto Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is produced and refined in the heart of the production area, between Val D’Orcia and Valdichiana, from vineyards situated in a countryside rich in monuments, villas and country homes. The origin of Vino Nobile goes back to the 17th century, when it was defined «The King of Tuscan Wines» (Francesco Redi, Bacco in Toscana). Doubtlessly drunk and appreciated by aristocrats and gentlemen (hence its name) this wine has transcended its fame to modern times.
Castellani is one of the leading Italian private wineries owned by the Castellani Family that in 2018 celebrates the 115th Anniversary since the start of the export activity; today Castellani exports quality Italian wines to 46 countries in the world.
