Budgets and relaunches, more culture, more quality, more pages, always under the banner of enhancing the territory, culture, wine.

We do this because roots give us strength and because being aware of our own history helps us identify the paths to take in the coming years,” says Francesco Trono, president of the historic Cantina.
