Welcome to the Wine Board, Beemer. The Rocco delle Macie wines are the house wines at the Olive Garden. Like most large wineries in Italy, they make many wines. Most of theirs are decent, inexpensive wines. According to Gabriella Zingarelli, who owns Rocco delle Macie, their Chianti Classico Riserva might last 15 years in a great vintage.
