Nestling in the hills surrounding Gavorrano, the Rigoloccio estate covers 23 hectares, of which nine are dedicated to wine production. The name Rigoloccio comes from an ancient pyrite mine; the access shaft was located within the estate. The vineyard was planted in 2003 by Agronomist Pierre Marie Guillaume and Master wine maker Fabrizio Moltard who recognized the unique potential of the site with its gentle slopes bathed in the mild sea breezes from the Isle of Elba and the mineral rich soil, giving the Rigoloccio wine its distinctive mineral overtones.
