For
many years, Sassicaia’s winery was located in Castiglioncello,
the highest point on the estate. Castiglioncello was a good
location for the initial vineyards. |
They
were few in number and near the old castle, however, as demand
for the wine grew the winery needed to expand. New vineyards
were being planted in diverse areas over the estate, necessitating
a more central and accessible location. |
|
In the 1960’s, the winery was moved and is now situated
on the cypress allée made famous by Giosuè
Carducci, opposite the church of San Guido.
