Region: Tuscany Participating with Promosiena The family wine business was founded in 1938, in one of the most beautiful corners of Italy: on the slopes of Monte Cetona, in the heart of the green hills and vineyards of the Tuscan area known as Valdichiana. Today, Barbanera stands for a dynamic and modern operation focused on export to Europe and beyond. Initially concentrated only on wines from Tuscany, the growing demand in recent years for wines from other Italian regions such as Puglia and Sicily has led to a broadening of the range of wines offered as well as a constant process of updating the winery’s technology. As a result and complementing Barbanera’s own lines such as Duca di Saragnano and Barbanera itself, the wines and their packaging can now be tailor-made to suit the customer’s needs. As part of the process of targeting new markets and new trade sectors, the company has also achieved certification in the principal organizational quality control systems: ISO, IFS and BRC. The Barbanera wines regularly win the highest awards in international competitions.

Region: Lazio Sometimes, beautiful things are born in unexpected situations: this can apply to Umberto Notarnicola and Bruno Violo, two men who, despite their origins being traditionally tied to regions of great red wines, were able to create in 1972 one of the most important private wine companies in the province of Rome: Cantine San Marco. Umberto’s and Bruno’s important job and dedication today, over 40 years after the foundation, is matched by that of their sons who are working side by side with them: Danilo Notarnicola and Pietro Violo. Thanks to them, the road to innovation, already undertaken by their fathers, has been taken further by introducing new grape varieties and, at the same time, bringing out the most important native varieties of Lazio.

Here, Martina Moreale carries on the project of her husband Roberto, founder of the winery. Day after day, the land diligently cared for offers its best fruits, harvested to create high-quality wines. In Friulian language, the name “Roncal” means a terraced estate on a hill. Our vineyards are favored by an excellent exposure and the sandstone/marl soil ideal for growing grapes. At Il Roncal, the grape harvest is delayed on purpose in order to pick the grapes when they come to their full ripeness. The process is then carried out within the factory cellars, with traditional methods and under controlled temperature. Here, tradition and modernity live together in harmony. That’s why, for example, near the shiny cold steel basins stand the sweet-smelling oak casks, where the wines mature and the fragrance becomes full-blown.

Region: Piedmont Le Ginestre is a winery located in the village of Grinzane Cavour, approximately 4 miles from Alba in the Langhe hills in Piedmont, in northwestern Italy. Grinzane Cavour is one of the only villages in this outstanding wine-growing area where Barolo can be produced. In the XVIII century, during the reign of Emmanuel II, most of the land around Grinzane Castle belonged to Count Camillo Benso of Cavour, the political architect of the Unification of Italy and Mayor of our area for 17 years. When the estate was sold, the land was purchased by local farmers, including our forebears. When Franco Audasso took over this smallholding in 1980, he began to sell his wines with the help of his wife, Giulia Vacchetti. Later their children, Gian Luca and Barbara, started working in the company as well. Over the course of the years the initial property has been extended with the acquisition of other vineyards, that have been partly replanted using the clones that are best suited to the type of soil. Franco takes care of the vineyards; Gian Luca manages the cellars and Giulia and Barbara are responsible for sales.

The space inside is simple and functional, following a philosophy that is not distracted by the large decorations but dedicates all the attention to the production of wine. The modern and practical steel drums sit along the large oak barrels (10 and 50 hectoliters) that give the wine body without creating overly pronounced notes. In these barrels, wines evolve for period of one to three years, then, they rest in the bottle other one to two years.

The rest of the land is an expanse of biodiversity-rich forest, arable crops and the green areas surrounding the winery and the guest accommodation houses (agriturismo). The unique microclimate that distinguishes this area is a mix of different features: first, the Judrio river that flows at the feet of the hills, then, the Bosco Romagno Nature Reserve in the surroundings and, finally, an exceptional exposure to sunlight. The Eocene marl in the soil, the so-called “ponca”, does the rest, imparting a distinct minerality, intense aromas and a good structure to the wines.

Region: Apulia The origins of the Vallone family’s estate can be traced back to the end of the 17th century when, in 1690, Angelo Vallone in 1690 began acquiring land in Terra d’Otranto, the area known nowadays as Salento. Three centuries later, Vincenzo Vallone established the Santi Dimitri brand with the aim of preserving the cultural and entrepreneurial heritage of the old family business by focusing all efforts on quality production and seeking to instill a territorial identity to its products through extensive research and a careful selection of grape varieties. Since 2014 a new generation of the family is honoring the tradition. Recently, the vineyards have been re-zoned to make sure only the best grapes ultimately make it to the bottle. New agricultural protocols have been introduced to finetune production, respect the needs of the vines – in other words “listen” to them and further reduce chemicals in all stages of production. If we learn to “listen to the vine”, in time it will reward our efforts.

The wines proposed by Sasso dei Lupi widely represent native grapes as Grechetto, and Sagrantino, as well as international varieties that in Umbria found their perfect environment and expression into fine wines. Sasso dei Lupi is a modern company, ready to provide to the international customer the best trade and marketing support.

Region: Apulia The grapes of Tufara Donvito Wine grow in a very old limestone quarry where, during the Byzantine period, raw materials were extracted for the construction of the castle in Gioia del Colle (Bari) that, at a later stage, was expanded by the Emperor Frederick II. The Apulian artist Gino Donvito, who always evokes historical facts related to Frederick II in his works, decided to commend the beloved emperor not only through art but also through the wine Tufara Donvito, explicitly dedicated to Frederick II. Apulia has been producing wine for one thousand years and, during the Middle Ages, a considerable production was recorded: no wonder that Dante Alighieri, in his writings, describes Apulia as “a thirsty land where the sun turns into wine.” The importance of wine-growing development was also well understood by Frederick II, although he didn’t drink: he had about a thousand grapevines imported from Campania and planted in the Castel del Monte area. The wine Tufara Donvito hides ancient stories, as its vines are deeply rooted in the history of the land to which Gino Donvito and his daughter Luna are immensely bound: “Time not devoted to Land or Art is time wasted.” By taking care of his vineyard, Donvito not only is a passionate winemaker: he is also the artist waiting for inspiration to conceive a new artwork. He signs his art with an olive branch, sending through every work a message of peace that is, at the same time, the tangible mark of his extraordinary love for Apulia.

Region: Friuli Venezia Giulia Participating with Friuli Future Wines VII Giorgio Zaglia Winery produces quality wines in Friuli, in the far northeast of Italy in the Latisana DOC wines area, where the existence of a consolidated winemaking tradition is unquestionable. The estate, stretching across a surface of about 30 hectares, is situated in the area of Precenicco and Pocenia, in the southwest of the Province of Udine between the Stella and the Tagliamento rivers, where the clay soil, rich in mineral salts, and the nearby Adriatic Sea, producing warm and salty air currents, create an extraordinary microclimate ideal for vine growing. The vines are grown according to low environmental impact standards: the grapes are picked strictly by hand; the vinification, based on refined physical techniques rather than chemical, is implemented in stainless steel vats at controlled temperature. Eventually, the ageing process both in steel and barrique gives birth to a series of balanced white and red classical wines from Friuli with appreciated genuine and noble features.
