Join us for an enchanting evening as we delve into the legacy of Cocci Grifoni, where innovation meets tradition in the heart of Italy's Marche region. Savour some of the exceptional wines that have reshaped the landscape of Italian viticulture, crafted from grapes nurtured on historic, organic vineyards.

• Historical Significance: Guido Cocci Grifoni took over his family’s estate in Piceno, a secluded hilly area in Italy's Marche region known for its Renaissance villages and small landholders.

• Innovative Vision: In the 1960s, Guido revitalized the region by rediscovering the ancient indigenous grape variety, Pecorino, previously thought lost. He crafted one of Italy’s most cherished white wines, marking a significant departure from the region’s traditional focus on full-bodied reds.

• Legacy and Impact: The Cocci Grifoni family played a crucial role in saving this grape variety, preserving a piece of Italy’s winemaking heritage and redefining the region's identity.

• Commitment to Nature: The estate, established in 1933, emphasizes living in harmony with nature, surrounded by forests, fields of wheat, and olive groves, ensuring sustainable land stewardship.

• Certified Organic: Today, the Cocci Grifoni vineyards are certified organic, benefiting from a unique microclimate created by large day-night temperature fluctuations and natural landscape features that promote viticulture and biodiversity.
