CASTELLO MONTERINALDI
Among the Chianti Classico 9 areas, Radda In Chianti is now a fierce battlefield crowded with famous wineries, but in 1961 when the land of Castello Monterinardi was owned by Remo Champi, the surrounding area was still rice cultivation. It was a zone.
Remo's work history at that time was an insurance salesman. However, he had a strong passion for his home country. When he visited his hometown of Tuscany and actually decided to buy this land, his primary concern was managing the villa ... rather than buying it as a rural dwelling to escape the hustle and bustle of the busy city. In the beginning, I visited on weekends to enjoy the tranquility. However, once exposed to the land and the culture of viticulture, Remo ignited his inner passion and decided to bring the whole family to Tuscany and embark on a winemaking adventure. It's ...! The first wine made since he bought the land was a 1967 vintage. Regardless of the result, it seems that there are still about 100 left to commemorate. However, for as long as about 50 years, production was very limited and never sold to other countries.
After his father Remo died in late 2000, his son Daniele decided to start making a full-fledged Chianti Classico.
