Description
Castello del Trebbio was constructed in the late twelfth century for the Pazzi family. The name “Trebbio” comes from the Latin word “Trivium”, three ways.
In the fourteenth century the Pazzi family was very powerful, surpassed only by the Medici family. In 1478 some Pazzi family members decided to change the balance of power by killing the two strongest Medici brothers, Giuliano and Lorenzo the Magnificent. History has called the events which followed the ‘Pazzi conspiracy’. Giuliano was killed but Lorenzo escaped and his revenge was terrible. Many of the Pazzi were killed and their property was seized. Castello del Trebbio was given to the Medici family. They stripped it of all but two of the Pazzi treasures; A shield sculpted by Donatello remains in the courtyard today and part of a fresco by Andrea del Castagno. The castle underwent the last major structural change in the 15th century when the Medici family extended it, forming a courtyard and adding an internal well.
The current family bought Castello del Trebbio in 1968. The father was from Italy and the mother was born in Austria. A program of restoration and vineyard planting was undertaken to bring the estate to its current splendour. Unfortunately in 1988 the father died and 16 months later the mother died in a bus accident. For three years the five siblings managed the estate. Five managers lead to many struggles and difficulties so the eldest brother worked out a way of financing the estate. Castello del Trebbio is now owned by just two of the siblings and their families. They have changed the focus of the estate to producing high quality wine and olive oil.
Today the estate produces about 350,000 bottles of wine. From the traditional Chianti, good DOCG wine for every day with excellent price, to the high quality SuperTuscan ‘Pazzesco’, blend of Sangiovese, Merlot and Syrah grapes and the Chianti Rufina Riserva ‘Lastricato’, while Anna Baj Macario, the castle’s owner, is responsible for the wine marketing and the production of excellent extra-virgin olive oil and saffron, the wine maker is Stefano Casadei, Anna’s husband. Stefano and Anna also founded other wine companies in Southern Tuscany, Sardinia and Pantelleria (Sicily).
Recently started Castello del Trebbio to develop some touristical activities such as wine tours and tastings in the castle and farm holidays. The family run company welcomes their guests in comfortable apartments and in a magnificent Villa for many families or a group of friends. The guests staying in our estate can relax, visit the close historical cities like Florence, Siena, Pisa or take part to the many activities we organize such as tuscan cooking classes, ceramic courses, horse back riding, trekking, mountain biking, wine tastings. We have recently opened a nice restaurant in old farmer’s cellars.
There is just a sentence to describe Castello del Trebbio: Culture, relax, excellent wines and food, sport, and our love and passion for everything we do.
