About the winery · Famiglia Castellani ›
Famiglia Castellani traces its wine business to Alfredo Castellani in Montecalvoli in the late 1800s, when he began bottling and selling his own wine. Later generations expanded the company, including export growth and estate acquisitions such as Poggio al Casone and Campomaggio. The producer frames its work around Tuscan identity, viticultural research, technological experimentation, and continuity across generations. The Collezione Collesano range celebrates Tuscan wine tradition and pairs selected wines with artwork by Andrea Collesano.
