Vineyards & Groves
Vineyards & Groves
Castello di Casole entices those who would love to vacation among enchanting vineyards and olive groves. The estate has more than 100 acres of organic vineyards dotting its gorgeous landscape, 13 distinct plots that include Cabernet, Sangiovese, Merlot and Petit Verdot varietals. Ranging from newly planted to decades-old, the grapes are used to produce both our Dodici and ‘C’ private-label signature wines, which are available through our winery only to Guests of the Hotel Castello Di Casole and Owners of the Tuscan villas and farmhouses.
The wine experience is particularly evident whenever you dine at Ristorante Tosca, where a large wall displays hundreds of vintages from leading wineries in Tuscany and around the world. The estate’s expert sommelier will assist in creating special food and wine pairings.
Tuscany is home to the world’s finest olive groves, and the 30 acres at Castello di Casole may very well be the finest of all. Harvested each fall, the olives produce a private-label extra virgin olive oil unlike any other. While we continue to plant trees around the estate, the existing groves produce just 2,500 bottles of oil annually. All are bottled and used exclusively at the Castello di Casole estate, with a dedicated allotment for Owners and guests.
Model Game Reserve
Model Game Reserve
Out of more than 52 game reserves in the province of Siena, Castello di Casole was singled out as the superior leader for its thriving vegetation and animal populations and designated as a Model Game Reserve. The award is a true testament to the remarkable work of Game Warden, Paolo Bagnoli, and his staff of just a few full-time gamekeepers who tend the land and lead seasonal hunting expeditions on the estate.
Among the many joys of the Model Game Reserve are its many scenic footpaths and abundant animals within minutes of the Hotel Castello Di Casole. The hare, pheasant and deer populations are very healthy, while efforts to control the population of fox, nutria/coypu and wild boar through the use of control methods authorized by the Provincia di Siena have been extremely successful.
