They have gained international recognition for its high-quality natural wines, which exhibit a sense of place and reflect the dedication of the winemakers. They exemplify a commitment to organic and biodynamic farming, as well as crafting distinctive natural wines that capture the essence of their vineyards. Rosso di Gaetano is an easy-drinking red wine with plenty of red cherry, earth and bitter herbs, while remaining incredibly light on its feet!
