The castle dates back to the 1500s and is well-known for its excellent location. However, the most significant testimony dates back to 1716, when Grand Duke Cosimo III de' Medici identified the four most suitable territories in Tuscany for producing Quality Wines.
The document, considered the forerunner of modern DOCs, lists the Pomino land along with Chianti, Carmignano and Val d'Arno di Sopra.
Since that date, the wines of Castello Pomino have won many awards: they were awarded in 1873 at the Universal Exhibition in Vienna and in 1878 won the Gold Medal at the Paris Expo, the highest international recognition at the time.
Today, Castello Pomino still stands for Tuscan winemaking tradition, combined with a desire to innovate and expert know-how. Brightness and minerality for a signature Tuscan wine. Read more

| Harvest | The grapes are harvested with the greatest possible care. The care taken in the vineyard as well as the subsequent processing in the cellar, contribute to a high level of quality. From the moment they enter the cellar, the grapes and, consequently, the must are treated by avoiding contact with oxygen as much as possible. |
| Wine making | The pressing cycles are chosen to allow a gentle extraction of the musts. Alcoholic fermentation is conducted in steel tanks and 15% in French oak barriques, all at a controlled temperature. Pomino Bianco is refined in the bottle for a few months at the end of its production process. |
| Aging | 4 months in stainless steel and 1 month in the bottle. |
