About the Winery

Castello di Meleto is a historic winery and estate located near Gaiole in Chianti, in the heart of the Chianti Classico region of Tuscany. The estate dates back to the 11th century, when it was owned by the Benedictine monks of the Badia a Coltibuono. Over the centuries, it became a fortified castle and later the residence of noble families, notably the Ricasoli family, one of the most influential names in Chianti’s history.
