When in 1377 Gregory XI moved the papal seat from Avignon to Rome, some French families followed him to Italy, one of them, probably for simplicity, began to be called "Avignonesi".

Avignonesi consists of four wine-producing estates: Le Capezzine, I Poggetti, La Selva and La Lombarda. In total they comprise 225 hectares of open ground, 109 ha of vineyards and 3 ha of olive groves. Read more
