L'alba nelle Terre di Balbia

A family bonded
by a shared
PASSION

We are in Calabria -one of Italy’s most ancestral and undiscovered regions. In the medieval center of Altomonte, the culture of the ancient Balbia village still shimmers through its vines. Centuries ago, indeed, the wines crafted along these lands had been profusely evoked by Pliny the Elder as a divine nectar, called “balbino”.

A special
TERROIR

A terroir where the temperature shifts due to the nearby Mount Pollino (7,437 ft) and the sea breezes from the Ionian and the Tyrrhenian Sea results in an ideal climate for vines to grow.

Unmistakable
STYLE

Each single detail may seem irrelevant, but all together they make the magic
