Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Maurizio Castelli
Years Angel-funded: 2014-18
- A famous Brunello consultant – Maurizio had a hand in many of the region's most famous wines like La Ragnaie (100 point wine), Mastrojanni, Badia a Coltibuono, Bastianich, Mastrojanni, Grattamacco and a long list of other delicious wines that are even more expensive than they are difficult to pronounce.
- And on top of knowing how to make landmark luxury wines, he creates remarkable everyday sippers like Integolo (the top-rated value wine in Wine Spectator's Top 100 list)
- Maurizio is proof that there's Sangiovese at every price range. And when you're funded by indie wine drinkers directly, it can always taste like a hundred bucks!
