Description
The story of Rocca delle Macìe begins not in the vineyard, but on a soundstage in Rome.
Film producer Italo Zingarelli made his name with spaghetti westerns, most notably “The Trinity Series,” starring Bud Spencer and Terrence Hill. Emboldened by his success, Italo decided to pursue his lifelong dream of making wine by founding Rocca delle Macìe in 1973.
From a small, family-run business in the village of Castellina, Rocca delle Macìe has become one of Tuscany’s most renowned wine producers. Led today by Sergio Zingarelli, Italo’s youngest son, Rocca delle Macìe consists of six estates. The original Le Macìe, along with their Tenuta Sant’Alfonso, Riserva di Fizzano, and Le Tavolelle lie in Castellina, in the Chianti Classico region. The Zingarellis’ two other properties, Campo Maccione and Casamaria, are in the coastal region of Maremma.
