The Di Carlo family has been making wine since 1830, but it’s in 1991 that Giannicola converted all the vineyards to organic farming and got the certification by ICEA, and founded the winery as we know it today. We treasure the Abruzzo grape variety such as Montepulciano, Passerina, Pecorino while experimenting with other italian varieties like Primitivo, and some international ones.

Through the use of classic and ancient winemaking techniques, involving amphoras and concrete, we offer a broad range of styles, while a low-chemical intervention and an environment-respectful winemaking remains our polar star.
