All of the wines come from Treiso vineyards, including a Barbaresco DOCG, a Langhe Nebbiolo, a Dolcetto d’Alba and a Langhe Arneis. The Barbaresco is made from old Nebbiolo vines planted between 1950 and 1970 on marine-origin soils of sand and calcareous marl.

In 1974 it passed to his children, who drove its growth and its ambitions for quality.
The land carries a distinct Arbëreshë heritage: in 1530 Demetrio Capuzzimati, an Albanian mercenary captain, founded a settlement here for Albanian families fleeing the Ottoman Empire. Most vineyards are farmed as traditional alberello bush vines, producing DOP and IGP wines that express the terroir of Taranto and Salento, from Primitivo, Negroamaro and Malvasia. The winery balances local tradition with the international market, appealing to contemporary palates.
San Lorenzo
Based in Castilenti, a medieval village in the hills of Abruzzo in the province of Teramo, between the Apennines and the Adriatic Sea, San Lorenzo began in 1890 when Francesco D’Amico bought its first two hectares.

From its base in Contrada Plavignano, the estate farms 168 hectares of certified organic vineyards and produces roughly 700,000 bottles.

Described as the most important private wine company in the province of Rome, it is now run by the founders’ sons, Danilo Notarnicola and Pietro Violo, who have introduced new grape varieties while promoting Lazio’s most important native varieties.

The estate is certified under the SQNPI sustainable production scheme and produces between 100,000 and 500,000 bottles. Its Brut is made from Glera and is fresh, crisp and approachable, with a clean, dry finish ideal for aperitivo or celebrations.

Today the estate works nine hectares under a strict organic method.
The entire process, from grape to finished bottle, takes place on the property, and the wines are handcrafted. They include two Chianti Classico bottlings, both 100% Sangiovese, a Viognier white, a Sangiovese rosé, a Rosso Toscano and a Supertuscan made from Cabernet Sauvignon, along with a small amount of olive oil.

Based in Trélou-sur-Marne, in the western Marne Valley, Domaine Mallet was originally known as Champagne Philippe Mallet and is a family estate now led by Alexandre Mallet.

Pinot Meunier is the estate’s signature variety, supported by Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Vinification takes place on site, mostly plot by plot to express the terroir, and fermentation in stainless steel preserves freshness. The champagnes are full-bodied, supple and aromatically intense, with an authentic and bold character.

About eight hectares of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec have been farmed under organic certification since 2011. Macau lies in the Haut-Médoc, on the left bank of the Garonne, where Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot thrive on gravelly soils.
Lucien Jacob
The story of Lucien Jacob begins in 1922, when Louis Jacob, a small-fruit grower based in Échevronne, started buying his first vineyard plots on the slopes of the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. The domaine began with blackcurrants and raspberries, and the profits funded vineyards in Savigny-lès-Beaune and Pernand-Vergelesses.
Louis’s son, Lucien, greatly enlarged the estate in the 1960s and devoted his career to promoting the region, serving for many years in the National Assembly. His son Jean-Michel later added Beaune Premier Cru sites, lowered yields and lengthened the maceration for structure. The domaine holds nearly 15 hectares, and after a century of family ownership it joined Domaine Jean Féry in 2022. The estate is organic, with native yeasts and long ageing.
