The story
Founded in 1974 by filmmaker/intellectual Gian Vittorio Baldi, the estate was prominent in the 1970s–1990s; acquired in 2020 by the Rametta brothers who reinstated single‑'ronco' vinification. ([ronchidicastelluccio.com](https://ronchidicastelluccio.com/chi-siamo/))
Production philosophy
Single‑cru work (micro‑vinifications), vineyard management with organic practices (grass cover, treatments limited to copper and sulfur), very low yields and ageing in lightly toasted French barriques (Allier, Vosges, Tronçais). ([ronchidicastelluccio.com](https://ronchidicastelluccio.com/chi-siamo/))
Terroir and vineyards
Hills above Modigliana (Acerreta valley), Forlì‑Cesena (Emilia‑Romagna); vineyards on marl and sandstone at roughly 250–410 m altitude; 'ronchi' are small clearings (~1 ha) each vinified separately.
