100% Sangiovese, cultivated according to biodynamic methods, certified by Demeter since 1995. Clay and limestone soils. Vines are trained using the Guyot system and managed organically, with biodynamic preparations enhancing soil life. Grapes are hand-harvested in the last week of September.
Story
Il Casale is a family-run winery in Certaldo, nestled in the hills of Tuscany, where Antonio Romei Rigoli and his family have been cultivating the land with passion since the 1980s. From the very beginning, their philosophy has been clear: organic farming, respect for biodiversity, and wines that are an honest reflection of their terroir.
At around 250 meters above sea level, on clay and limestone soils, their vineyards are dominated by Sangiovese, the beating heart of this corner of Tuscany.
Their Sangiovese is fermented with indigenous yeasts, aged with patience, and bottled without unnecessary intervention. What we love about Il Casale is Antonio's ability to craft wines that feel both ancient and alive, with rustic soul and bright energy.
