The castle of Brolio, surrounded by the vines that produce the most famous wines in the world. For bicycle lovers it is located on the permanent route of the Eroica, for wine lovers its cellar cannot miss a visit.
Brolio Castle has belonged to the Ricasoli family since 1141. Over the centuries, it has suffered destruction in numerous battles of which it still bears the marks.
The castle that we can admire today is the result of the reconstruction commissioned by Bettino Ricasoli in the nineteenth century, according to the medieval taste of the time. I'm talking about splendid Italian gardens with characteristic geometric shapes and a large romantic park that surrounds the castle.
From there it is also possible to enjoy a breathtaking view of the lands of the Ricasoli family, famous wine producers.
