Nestled in the picturesque landscapes of Montalcino, Casato Prime Donne stands as a beacon of innovation and tradition in the world of winemaking. Spanning across 40 hectares, the estate is home to 17 hectares of meticulously cultivated Sangiovese vineyards, dedicated to producing the acclaimed Rosso and Brunello di Montalcino wines.

What sets Casato Prime Donne apart is not just its stunning terroir, but its unique identity as a winery spearheaded entirely by women. In a country where the wine industry has historically been male-dominated, this all-female team, including the skilled winemaker, has become a flagship for empowerment and excellence in Italian winemaking.

The winery’s approach to aging is equally distinctive, as they forsake the traditional barriques in favor of larger, artisan-crafted French oak casks. This thoughtful method allows their Brunello to mature gracefully for a minimum of two years, ensuring the preservation of the wine’s elegance and complex flavor profile. After this, the wine is carefully transferred to 15-40 hectolitre barrels for further aging, followed by a critical maturation period in bottles that enhances its aromatic richness. The result is a Brunello characterized by refined red harmonies, a testament to the winery’s commitment to producing wines that are not just enjoyable but transcend the test of time.

Visitors to Casato Prime Donne are welcomed into a world where passion meets craftsmanship, and where every bottle encapsulates the essence of a pioneering spirit.
