Description

The power and elegance of Gaglioppo, an indigenous grape variety of Calabria, find concrete expression in this aristocratic Cirò wine. Its character is reminiscent of the strength of its land of origin, from which Liber Pater, the Italic god of wine and vines, is said to have drawn the delicate fragrances with which he inebriated the festivals in his honour.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1845
  • Oenologist: Giovanni Dimastrogiovanni
  • Bottles produced: 700.000
  • Hectares: 100
It was in 1845 when Vincenzo Ippolito embellished his initials on the country house in the Cirò marina between vineyards, olive groves and orange trees. In a very varied agriculture, the vines begin to play an important role, although the wine consumption was strictly local. With more than 160 years of history, Ippolito Winery is the oldest winery in Calabria. Located in the historic center of Cirò Marina, the heart of Calabrian viticulture, the farm includes an estate of over 100 hectares, distributed between gentle hills and sunny plains close to the Ionian Sea, located in the classical Cirò area. The corporate mission has always been the recovery and valorisation of native grape varieties such as Gaglioppo, White Greek, Calabrian and lastly the Sheep. Through constant research, the use of innovative techniques, direct control of all production processes, we seek in our wines elegance, exclusivity and identity with their own territory. A fascinating challenge faced in the sign of absolute quality. Today, the company boasts 14 labels on 4 continents, a fact that more than any other confirms a significant entrepreneurial dynamism.
