Castello Tricerchi

Castello Tricerchi A family history rooted in 1441, the year the castle was founded. We are Brunello di Montalcino producer🍷

A young team wine-obsessed
Organic farming, traditional methods, low intervention are our religion. Castello Tricerchi wine Estate is situated on the northern side of Montalcino. It extends for 400 hectares, 13 of which being covered with Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino vineyards. In the centre of the Estate stands the Castle, built in the 13th century by the Altesi family; in 1441

it was completed by the Tricerchi family, and today it is winery and home of their direct descendants, the Squarcia family. The vinification and aging cellar have been in the same place ever since the 15th century. Everything in this part of the castle is as it was 600 years ago and traditional methods have been conserved, with the inevitable help of technology. Our work is driven by passion,aiming at valorizing the terroir respecting our traditions. All necessary factors to produce a noble wine, like Brunello di Montalcino. Pursuant to the Ministerial Decree of 1982, the Tricerchi Castle was declared an artistic and historical heritage of Italy.

Castello Tricerchi, sul versante nord di Montalcino, si estende per 400 ettari, di cui 13 coperti da vigneti di Brunello di Montalcino e Rosso di Montalcino. Al centro della proprietà si erge il Castello costruito nel XIII secolo dalla famiglia Altesi e completato nel 1441 dalla famiglia Tricerchi, parte attiva dell’oligarchia senese. La cantina deputata all’invecchiamento dei vini è stata ricavata nelle “segrete” del castello, che già nel XV secolo la famiglia Tricerchi decise essere il luogo migliore per ospitare i vini e dove oggi si trovano le grandi botti di rovere di Slavonia tradizionalmente usate per l’affinamento del Brunello di Montalcino. Numerosi motivi decorativi e strutturali, attribuiti a Baldassarre Peruzzi noto artista di epoca medievale, si ritrovano in ogni parte del maniero. Con Decreto Ministeriale del 1982, Castello Tricerchi ( anche noto come Castello Altesi) è stato dichiarato Patrimonio Storico Artistico Italiano.

🍷 Rosso di Montalcino 2024

The 2024 vintage was an important one for expressing exactly what we want from our Rosso di Montalcino: freshness, vibrancy, and brightness.

A milder-than-average September helped us preserve these characteristics, giving the w**e a lively and juicy expression.

The w**emaking stays classic and straightforward: fermentation in stainless steel, followed by a short period of ageing in wood.

🍇 Not everything in the vineyard is about cutting.

Sometimes, the best choice is to work with the plant, not against it.

With shoot wrapping, we gently guide the shoots back onto the wire, creating a natural shade inside the canopy and slowing down the ripening process

🍷 Even a w**e cellar has its own soundtrack

Standing beneath the center of the cellar’s vaulted ceiling, her voice naturally carries and resonates throughout the space.

It’s all thanks to the architecture, designed to enhance sound in a remarkable way.

The same principle can also be found in iconic buildings like Siena Cathedral, where vaulted ceilings create an extraordinary acoustic experience.

🍇 The best part of the job?

Watching the vineyard change, day after day.

The clusters are now taking their final shape. While the grapes are still green, this stage is essential in defining the potential of the vintage to come.

☀️ Every great bottle has a place at the table

Here w**e is part of a bigger story—one of traditions, family recipes, and hands that still shape fresh pasta the old-fashioned way.

Because some of the best memories are made with flour on your hands and a glass of w**e nearby.
