Rocca delle Macie: Italian films, families and love for chianti wine


With Filippo, we are exploring the Rocca delle Macìe Estate and the Zingarelli Family.

The Chianti Classico district is a wine region filled with top-notch wineries, although Filippo Bartolotta, Mamablip’s fine Italian wine expert, finds himself drawn to the great wine estates thanks to their backgrounds and intriguing histories.

This interest Filippo nurtures brings us on an exploration of the Rocca delle Macìe wine property, a beacon of family values and principles guiding the Zingarelli family in their third generation of Chianti Classico wine production.

Born from a far-reaching inspiration on the side of Italo Zingarelli, a fabled boxer, film producer and then wine producer, Rocca delle Macìe has continued the tradition of fine Chianti Classico wines but has added today’s technology and sustainability practices to every vintage they produce throughout their 5 separate tenute.  Meticulous research and development has allowed the Zingarelli family to continue producing highly-regarded Chianti Classico wines while protecting and safeguarding the territories that give them them so much.

With Filippo, we’ll begin to explore the message pushing today’s Zingarelli family to maintain their quality levels, to stay united as a family, and to constantly strive to improve their wines and production methods with the ultimate goal of crafting memorable, territory-driven Chianti Classico wines to be loved in every corner of the world.
