The story
The buildings of Titignano date back to the Middle Ages and were historically part of a large agricultural estate later acquired by the Corsini family. In the 20th century the property specialized in agricultural production. Since 2015, management has been renewed under the leadership of Marchese Giovanni Incisa della Rocchetta and his wife, who modernized infrastructure and business operations.
Production philosophy
Combining the enhancement of historical and landscape heritage with hospitality and agricultural production: the Castle offers accommodation, dining and local experiences, while wine production is carried out at the nearby Tenuta di Salviano, with a focus on the area's typical character and local wines.
