(Montalcino, Italy – December 10, 2024) Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco, Tuscany, has been awarded a second Michelin star for its signature dining venue Ristorante Campo del Drago.
The prestigious award means the restaurant is one of only two in Italy to receive two stars in the MICHELIN Guide 2025.
The restaurant is part of the Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco resort, comprising a five-star luxury hotel, award-winning winery and Italy’s only private golf club.
The destination, featuring 42 luxury suites and 11 private villas nestled around an ancient hilltop village and medieval castle ruins, was recently highlighted as the leading hotel in Golf World’s new Top 100 Resorts in Continental Europe ranking.
Led by Tuscan-born Executive Chef Matteo Temperini and Maître D’ Maikol Calosci, Ristorante Campo del Drago offers a refined celebration of Tuscany’s culinary heritage. Ingredients sourced directly from the estate’s organic gardens and surrounding countryside inspire innovative dishes that perfectly complement the estate’s award-winning Brunello di Montalcino wines.

Achieving a second Michelin star highlights the passion, dedication, and skill of our team, who tirelessly strive to offer a culinary experience that is both authentically Tuscan and uniquely sophisticated.

Situated within the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Val d’Orcia, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco is part of a 900-year-old, 2,000-hectare estate that combines world-class dining, winemaking, and leisure.
The estate’s 62 hectares of organic-certified vineyards produce some of Tuscany’s most esteemed Brunello di Montalcino wines, completing the immersive Tuscan experience.
In addition to its five-star hotel and winery, the estate is home to The Club at Castiglion del Bosco, featuring Italy’s only private golf club. Designed by Tom Weiskopf, this exclusive 18-hole course has been ranked among the Top 10 in Italy by Golf Digest and is accessible only to resident hotel guests and club members.
