About the Producer:
Castellino's fairy
tale castle sits at the foot of Monte Orfano with 24 hectares (13
planted to vines) in Coccaglio, one of Franciacorta’s most prized
sites. This southern area enjoys a unique terroir with better exposure
and hotter temperatures than other zones, and the Bonomi family oversees
ripening patterns so perfect they regularly draw experts and students
from the University of Milan, who inspect and marvel at the vines.
The passion of owners Marino, Sandro, and Fausto Bonomi has driven
the evolution of Tenuta Castellino into one of the region's leading
producers. Luca d'Attoma conceptualized 'Super Lombardy' reds to complement
the estate's classic, top-notch sparklers, and new enologist Leonardo
Valentini unfalteringly continued his work producing Castellino's
rich, structured wines that age exclusively in French oak barriques.
