The story
The Mucci family's roots date back to 1895, when Luigi Mucci trained in oenology; the business was revitalized in the 1980s by grandfather Valentino and the first bottling dates to 1984. Since the late 1990s, management has seen the involvement of the new generation and the technical support of consulting oenologists, with a gradual expansion of ranges and international markets.
Production philosophy
The winery combines family tradition and technical innovation, showcasing its estate-grown grapes and its connection to the land. It aims to primarily vinify estate-grown grapes, promote the identity of local grape varieties, and offer an integrated wine tourism experience.
