BackgroundFor well over 40 years, the Zingarelli family has dedicated themselves to crafting the finest wines, providing meticulous attention to the vineyards. Established in 1973 by acclaimed Italian film producer Italo Zingarelli, Rocca delle Macie totals 600 hectares (1,500 acres) across six estates in Tuscany. Led today by Italo's son Sergio, his wife Daniela and two children, Rocca delle Macie is one of Tuscany's leading wine estates. While renowned for championing Chianti Classico, Rocca delle Macie cultivates a variety of Tuscan white wines. The winery focuses on indigenous and regional white grapes to produce elegant, crisp and refreshing wines.
VinificationThis blend of grapes is harvested both from Rocca delle Macìe’s Campo Maccione estate and select vineyards in the Tuscan area of Maremma. The wine refines for a few months in cement tanks before bottling.
