Now part of the prestigious ColleMassari Group alongside Poggio di Sotto, the winery focuses on organic-sustainable viticulture across 26 hectares of prime Sangiovese vines. Under the guidance of oenologist Luca Marrone, the production has returned to a traditional style using large wooden barrels to craft velvety, structured wines like the \"Ugolforte\" Brunello and the \"Ciampoleto\" Rosso. With its unique terroir of gravel and clay and a reputation as an official supplier to the Papal Swiss Guard, the estate holds a distinguished status within the Tuscan wine scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.custom-html-container,\n.custom-html-container * {\n  background-color: transparent !important;\n  box-shadow: none !important;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Remove any inherited top margin *\/\n  \n}\n\n.custom-html-container {\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Ensure container has no top space *\/\n  padding-top: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.custom-html-container .global-button {\n  background-color: #35174D !important;\n  color: #ffffff !important;\n  border: 2px solid #35174D !important;\n  display: inline-flex;\n  padding: 25px 40px;\n  font-family: Futura, sans-serif;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  font-weight: 400;\n  line-height: 110%;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  cursor: pointer;\n  transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Explicitly remove top margin *\/\n}\n  \n.custom-html-container .global-button:hover {\n  background-color: #ffffff !important;\n  color: #35174D !important;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center;\" class=\"custom-html-container\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"global-button\" href=\"\/collections\/rosso-di-montalcino-doc\"\u003eBrowse our Rosso di Montalcino Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Whelehans Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56782025752920,"sku":"112194","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/san-giorgio-ciampoletto-sangiovese-rosso-di-montalcino-whelehans-wines.jpg?v=1771859863","url":"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/products\/san-giorgio-ciampoleto-rosso-di-montalcino-2022","provider":"Whelehans Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
