Italian Wine Producers
The most famous names of Italy are among the most historic names in wine – Biondi-Santi, Aldo Conterno, Frescobaldi, Antinori – with the latter having made wine in Tuscany since the 14th century, across 26 generations. And while not every producer can boast quite such longevity, Italy is home to a huge number of family-owned wineries, many of whom have forged similarly stellar reputations after just two or three generations. The likes of Gaja, Bruno Giacosa, Pio Cesare, Elvio Cogno and GD Vajra are leading lights in Piedmont, just as the second- and third-generation Romano dal Forno and Quintarelli are standout names in Valpolicella. Even the more contemporary, cult Tuscan labels such as Tua Rita, Bibi Graetz and Castello di Ama are made by family-owned estates.
