villa calcinaia

Located in the centre of Chianti Classico near the town of Greve-in-Chianti. This historic estate has been home to the Counts Capponi since 1524, and is maintained by Sebastiano Capponi and his brother Niccolo. 

In 1992, Count Sebastiano Capponi became the first in the history of the family to manage the winery personally, giving a new life to the vineyards and the cellar.  The family owns 200 hectares of land planted with olive trees, vines and pine trees. 

Organic farming is the standard at Villa Calcinaia with 75 acres.  Through every vintage, the wines are crafted with food in mind. They are balanced, elegant and savoury with intensity that ensures longevity.

Nestled in Montefiore dell’Aso, Le Marche, Italy, this boutique winery was founded in 2003 by Francesco and Marisa Bellini. They revitalized an old cantina, transforming its 30 hectares of vineyards and six hectares of olive groves into an organic wine haven. 

By 2010, they unveiled a state-of-the-art winery. Far from urban centers, the estate enjoys pure air and a perfect climate between the Adriatic Sea and the Sibillini Mountains, offering breathtaking views and ideal conditions for sustainable agriculture.

Azienda Agricola Il Poggiolo was born in 1971 from the passion of my father, Roberto Cosimi. With a whimsical family spirit in my genes,

I, Rudy Cosimi, proudly continue his legacy. Our history of crafting Brunello di Montalcino spans 50 years on an impressive 65 hectares just 1 km southwest of Montalcino. My mission is to create increasingly refined and delightful wines, certain that Montalcino’s wine lovers will cherish them.

From the vineyards of Serralunga d’Alba to the lush valleys of Alba, from the stunning vistas of La Morra to the sea-kissed hills of Cremolino, our winery thrives on the diversity of these landscapes. 

Rooted in the rich histories and traditions of the Langhe and Monferrato hills, we are a dynamic company in constant evolution, showcasing the best each region has to offer.

Bellazoia is a delightful little village in the Colli Orientali del Friuli, a land of vines and wines, fertile and generous hills. Here the Azienda Agricola Tenimenti Civa was born, here Valerio Civa's dream took shape: to grow and spread the knowledge of Ribolla Gialla. A dream that is shared with the young team of professionals who work in the company.

In this small town between the Julian Prealps and the Upper Friulian Plain.

We grow Ribolla Gialla, Friulano, Sauvignon, Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay and Glera; Refosco dal peduncolo rosso, Schioppettino, Merlot and Cabernet among the red grape varieties.

We cultivate the land with care and respect, trying to leave intact the beauty of the environment that hosts us. To offer wines rich in nuances and long-lasting, we put the maturity of the fruit at the center.

We are committed to ensuring that our wines express tradition and modern quality . For this reason, we welcome innovations, in the countryside and in the cellar, that help us in this intent.

The Venturini Massimino Agricultural Company is based in San Floriano, in the municipality of San Pietro in Cariano (Verona) and began its activity in 1963, capitalizing on the experience and love for the land of at least three generations, from grandfather Antonio to his son Massimino and now with Daniele who follows the winemaking with particular attention, Mirco who takes care of the vineyards with passion and Giuseppina who takes care of the commercial part.

"Dedication and passion....
...it is a daily life in contact with nature, following and respecting its rhythms. It is the admiring look of the family that looks with pride at the ripe fruit. It is the memory of the sweet caress on our face of grandfather Massimino with his rough hands, expression of the earth".

Luca Menicucci has always had a deep-rooted belief in the greatness of Tuscany. Producing prestigious Tuscan DOC wines, while preserving their identity and uniqueness, is both his passion and daily goal. 

Our wines embody the elegance and austerity of the Sangiovese grape, expertly blended with the full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Our Chianti DOCG, DOCG Classico, and DOCG Classico Riserva represent our historical production, alongside the Governo all’Uso Toscano. We've expanded to include four Tuscan Rossi IGT, featuring the Super Tuscan Solo.

A special note goes to our Vin Santo Occhio di Pernice, a noble sweet wine made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes. Its long aging in oak barrels enhances its quality, imparting this exquisite nectar with authentic and inimitable notes.

Here we are, Carla and Anna, the daughters of “Don Rocco” Perrucci.

Dad was well known in Catignano: Don Rocco's vineyards have provided work to almost all the families in the town over the years. We took back the reins of the family business starting in 2018, starting a major restructuring in 2020, in the midst of the pandemic. The Tenuta Tre Gemme brand is our contribution to the history of the family and of this territory: an exclusive brand, for excellent wines.

Our father Rocco transformed the family properties into a company in the early 1960s, consolidating the land, diversifying the vineyards and building the historic central body of the current winery.

With longstanding experience, determination, and respect for the land, Possente winery expertly captures Trapani's natural wine heritage. They produce reds with intense flavors and whites with authentic tastes, using both indigenous and international grape varieties. 

The Possente family’s passion and expertise reflect centuries of local viticulture, traditionally passed down through generations. Their vineyards in Alcamo and Salaparuta blend Nero d’Avola, Catarratto, and Grillo with Syrah and Cabernet, creating unique wines that embody the region's rich history and culture.

Villa Folini blends youthful dynamism with a rich history, as the Scolaris family has been crafting exceptional wines since 1924. Giovanni Scolaris recognized the Collio's potential from the start, nestled between the Julian Pre-Alps and the Adriatic Sea. 

Today, his grandson Marco has expanded the brand nationally and internationally, transforming that early vision into reality. The iconic black and white line on each label, representing the gentle Collio hills, reflects the company’s evolution. Over nearly a century, Scolaris has consistently delivered authentic wines with a refined simplicity and professional expertise.

Bodegas Lambuena, a small family winery in Ribera del Duero, is led by winemaker Pedro Cabestrero, who trained in Burgos, Madrid, and France. We are dedicated to preserving old vineyards that embody the quality of Ribera del Duero. 

These vines grow in challenging, infertile soils—sandy and poor—on land difficult for both people and machinery to access. The deep-rooted vines search for nutrients in quartz, lime, and clay, resulting in wines with unique character and exceptional quality.

With over 250 years of winemaking tradition in Penedès, located in the Central Valley town of La Granada, our region benefits from a unique microclimate that minimizes sea humidity. The open valley gently slopes from the striking Montserrat massif to the sea, shaped by the rivers Anoia and Foix. This cava subzone, ranging from sea level to 800 meters, boasts diverse microclimates and terroirs ideal for vine cultivation.

The first Irish Whiskey created by Italians in Ireland.  A whiskey that has its roots in Irish tradition and at the same time celebrates the Italian lifestyle and excellence, paying extreme attention to the quality of raw materials and production techniques.

"Think how beautiful it could be if everyone could feel  and be able to love and experience whisky as you taught me. Anyone deserves this opportunity." Federico

We believe that whisky, like many other excellences, manages to express all the magic it has inside it, if it is lived rather than analyzed.

Our dream is to offer anyone who has the desire and the opportunity to discover and learn about an extraordinary product such as a Scotch Whisky in the most natural way, simplify the choice and purchase and finally bring it to the role it deserves.

After more than a century, the old recipe came to light, and Artista takes on a new lease of life.

There are tales that are extraordinary and timeless, and this one starts with a dusty trunk in a dark attic. Inside, an abandoned chest held a scrap of paper revealing a powerful secret: inspiration.

The legend goes that artists, musicians, and poets from all over the Old World flocked to Livorno to sip a mysterious amber elixir, one that sparked their most inspired works. They called it the "quintessence of creativity" – an herbal digestif with notes of old traditions, igniting artistic brilliance and ideas.

In the haze of a pub, stories circulated of an artist raising a glass to genius and lost loves. But, as with all tales where fantasy and reality blur, this extraordinary elixir eventually vanished. Now, Artista has revived the old recipe, breathing new life into this timeless legend.

Cascina Ciuché, inspired by the legend of the "cioccaro" bell-ringer, blends tradition and innovation in winemaking. The Dogliotti family has cultivated Barbera and Moscato grapes since the early 1900s, establishing their vineyard in Valcioccaro in 1956.

Rebranded by Angelo Dogliotti in 1996, the estate now spans over 21 hectares in Costigliole d'Asti, Agliano Terme, and Castelnuovo Calcea, with 15 hectares dedicated to red grapes like Barbera and Nebbiolo, and 6 hectares to white grapes like Moscato and Chardonnay. 

Upholding their legacy, Angelo and his son Enrico focus on quality and international expansion, using traditional cultivation techniques perfected over decades.

Certified by Valoritalia, Piancornello's dedication to organic farming extends to every facet of its operations.
