Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco in Italy 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 be upgraded to two stars in the Michelin Guide 2025, and one of 38 restaurants in the country to have achieved the accolade.

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.

Mirko Marchi, Managing Director of Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco, said: “We are deeply honored by this recognition. 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. This award is a testament to their commitment to excellence.”

“This second Michelin star is a tribute to Chef Matteo’s artistry and the team’s passion for Tuscany’s culinary heritage,” said David Waters, General Manager of The Club at Castiglion del Bosco.

“This prestigious recognition places Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco among a rarefied group of golf resorts offering Michelin-starred dining alongside exceptional amenities, further cementing our reputation as one of Europe’s premier luxury destinations and a must-visit for lovers of fine dining, exceptional wine, and world-class golf.”

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. 

The resort, featuring 42 luxury suites and 11 private villas nestled around an ancient hilltop village and medieval castle ruins, was recently ranked 16th in Golf World’s new Top 100 Resorts in Continental Europe ranking, with its accommodation offering receiving full marks.
