From this winery
  • Start up year: 1953
  • Oenologist: Barbara Tamburini
  • Bottles produced: 100.000
  • Hectares: 27
In 2022, Gualdo del Re opened a new chapter in its history: the estate was acquired by Mauro Gestri, an entrepreneur from Pistoia.

The transition occurred whilst continuing along the path of excellence undertaken by Barbara Tamburini who, in the meantime, has become one of the most famous and recognised enologists in Italy and abroad.

The new business development program includes the restoration of some vineyards and the purchase of new plots. The recently acquired plots would be planted with massal selections of traditional varieties that resulted from extensive studies and analysis.

At the same time, modernization was organized for Il Ristorante, Il Casale and, especially, the Cellar, whose technical unit would be employed for a wider vineyard rationalization.
