History
Castello Banfi was founded in 1978 by the Mariani family, Italian-Americans who had been involved in wine importing and distribution since 1919. They saw great potential in this then sleepy Tuscan region and from the start their goal was to establish a point of excellence in Montalcino.
Regional Information
Montalcino is their principal estate and lies at the confluence of the Orcia and Ombrone rivers on the southern slopes of the township facing the Mediterranean. Here conditions are ideal with a variety of soils; structured clay and chalk for the reds and soils with stones and a high proportion of organic matter for their whites. Well-exposed vineyards benefit from plenty of sunshine, breezes and a significant diurnal temperature range. These factors make the area ideal for the Sangiovese grape.

Vinification Details
The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks and French oak casks before being matured for 2 years in French oak casks (40%) and French oak barriques (60%).
