Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, my ancestors produced quality wine in the Southern Abruzzo region of Italy. After WWI, my grandparents emigrated from war-torn Italy to the US in search of a better life for their family. Now, 100 years later, I have returned to my beautiful ancestral village of Carunchio to carry on producing wines that are approachable, elegant, and capture the spirit of this stunning region. We’ve assembled a world-class team of agronomists and oenologists to pay tribute to this beautiful land and all it has to offer.
