  • Bottles produced: 800.000
  • Hectares: 140
Di Majo Norante has been producing wine from its grapes since 1800, as evidenced by the old cellars under the square in the old family palace in Campomarino, Termoli, Molise. The dedication to vine cultivation was inherited first from Luigi and then Alessio Di Majo and is practised today together with a passion for research and experimentation.
Di Majo Norante produces its wines exclusively from the 85 hectares of the ancient feud of the Marquis Norante di Santa Cristina. A barrel cellar will soon join the modern wine cellar in a 17th-century stone barn.
Di Majo Norante's oenological philosophy respects the traditional approach to vine cultivation and wine production to preserve all the characteristics of Mediterranean grape varieties. Read more
