Nestled on one of Montalcino’s exposed ridges, Castello Romitorio stands tall as a renowned winery celebrated for crafting exceptional Brunello di Montalcino wines in the heart of Tuscany. The five-course menu, meticulously curated by Executive Chef Miguel Martinez, will be complemented by a selection of Castello Romitorio’s highest-rated wines.
The Castello Romitorio winery derives its name from the grand twelfth-century fortress perched atop a hill, surrounded by an enchanting oak tree forest in northwestern Montalcino. Devoted to exploring, studying, and promoting wines falling under the DOCG and DOC designations of Montalcino, the Società Agricola Castello Romitorio was founded in 1984 by Sandro Chia. Chia embarked on populating the hills with the oldest Sangiovese clones, distinctive to the Montalcino region. Today, these vineyards contribute significantly to the rich biodiversity of Romitorio’s surroundings, encompassing nearly half of the vineyard land.
Tickets for this extraordinary wine dinner start from $225.00, offering an unparalleled experience for aficionados seeking to indulge in the charm of Castello Romitorio’s exceptional wines.
