Italian wine continues to tell its story around the world through immersive experiences that bring together culture, place and identity. In this context, Castello del Terriccio brings its enological manifesto, Lupicaia, to Singapore, the protagonist of a masterclass that becomes both narrative and international positioning. The special vertical tasting, hosted at 67 Pall Mall Singapore, gathered wine professionals, sommeliers, importers and enthusiasts in a highly qualified setting, confirming the strategic value of Asian markets for Tuscan wine.
A nine‑vintage vertical with Vittorio Piozzo di Rosignano to explore Lupicaia
At the heart of the event was a vertical tasting of nine vintages of Lupicaia (2003–2011), a journey designed to travel through time and trace the stylistic evolution of the estate’s signature wine.
Through the tasting, the wine revealed its ability to interpret each vintage while maintaining a coherent identity, expressing year after year the distinctive character of the estate.
An exercise that goes beyond technique, becoming a complete narrative of the estate’s philosophy and of the relationship between territory and wine.
Leading the masterclass was Vittorio Piozzo di Rosignano, head of the estate, who guided guests through a journey of history, viticulture and contemporary vision.
The tasting highlighted Lupicaia’s ability to combine structure and elegance, confirming its ageing potential and its position among the benchmark wines of the Tuscan landscape.
The narrative unfolded as a dialogue between vintages, territory and production choices, offering a dynamic yet coherent reading of the wine.
Singapore as a strategic hub
The choice of Singapore reflects a precise international development strategy.
The city is one of Asia’s main economic and commercial centers, as well as an increasingly relevant market for fine wine, capable of attracting a knowledgeable and engaged international audience.
In this context, the initiative fits into Castello del Terriccio’s broader path of international growth, aimed at strengthening its presence abroad alongside the Italian market.
Wine diplomacy and Made in Italy
The Asian trip also carried institutional and cultural significance.
Castello del Terriccio took part in the June 2 celebrations at the Embassy of Italy in Singapore, marking the eightieth anniversary of the Italian Republic.
A moment that reinforced the link between wine and cultural representation, helping promote Italian excellence in a high‑profile international setting.
The territory: origin and identity
At the foundation of this international journey remains the estate’s bond with its place of origin.
Located in Castellina Marittima, among holm oak hills, Mediterranean scrub and vineyards overlooking the sea, Castello del Terriccio embodies a synthesis of landscape, history and viticulture.
A context where viticulture integrates with the environment, shaping the character of the wines.
Lupicaia: style and continuity
Produced since 1993 and aged for over twenty‑two months in tonneaux, Lupicaia stands out for a profile that combines power and elegance, building over time a recognisable identity.
Alongside it, the estate develops a range that includes Tassinaia, Castello del Terriccio and Gian Annibale, outlining an articulated yet coherent enological project.
