The castle was built during the 14th century and was owned by a succession of nobility. In 1429, during the Hundred Years’ War, Joan of Arc stayed in the castle’s tower. She was waiting for an audience with King Charles VII of France to organise an attack against the English to relieve the French troops at the siege of Orléans. After various owners during the 19th and 20th centuries, the property was eventually acquired by Dr Christian Feray in 2005, who undertook major restorations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe property comprises 30 hectares of vines, situated on the left bank of the river Vienne.

While the month of June was characterised by great weather contrasts, the month of July was marked by heat waves and severe drought.

It was the first Sangiovese wine to be aged in small oak barrels, the first modern red wine to use such non-traditional varieties as Cabernet in the blend, and among the first red wines from the Chianti Classico area to be produced without white grapes. The wine, originally called \"Chianti Classico Riserva Vigneto Tignanello\" (a Chianti Classico Riserva from the Tignanello vineyard), was produced for the first time from a single vineyard parcel in 1970, when the blend contained 20% of Canaiolo and 5% of Trebbiano and Malvasia, both white grapes, and the wine aged in small oak barrels. In 1971 it became a Tuscan red table wine rather than a Chianti Classico, and was called Tignanello. In the 1975 vintage the percentage of white grapes was definitively eliminated from the blend. Ever since 1982, the blend has been the one currently used. Tignanello is bottled only in favorable vintages, and was not produced in 1972, 1973,1974, 1976, 1984, 1992,and 2002.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Note:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTignanello 2020 is a deep ruby red colour.
