The history

Banfi was founded in 1978 thanks to the will of the Italian-American brothers, John and Harry Mariani.

From the beginning, the goal of the two brothers was to create a state of the art winery combined with the most advanced science in the vineyards for the production of premium wines.

Together with the Mariani family, Ezio Rivella, one of Italy’s foremost enologists, who understood that due to the richness of the soils and the privileged microclimatic position, the property would have great capacity of development

In those years  John and Harry, also purchased Bruzzone, a historic winery in Piedmont.

  • Founded in 1860

The winery

  • Designed to protect the integrity and richness of the grape, the winery employs state of the art technology the result of revolutionary technical research and innovation.

And in this same philosophy, based on continual research, that a number of projects came to be on our estate, including the clonal study of Sangiovese, research on the composition and aging of wood for barrels  and the completion of our “Horizon” microvinification area, creating a winery within a winery.

This project, entirely conceived and developed by and at Banfi, is made up of a series of expedient high level solutions undertaken to improve upon each phase of winemaking

The tremendous undertaking for vinification is followed by a long silent rest in wood, where the great wines of Banfi,  evolve over the passage of time and refine their most distinctive characteristics of strength, elegance and longevity.

More than 7000 customized barrels, laid out in orderly rows, and large casks make up the heart of Banfi, which beats in the silent and peaceful ambience surrounding our winery.

Winemaker’s notes

Estate-bottled in limited quantities only in exceptional years from our finest “Poggio all’Oro” vineyard, where in near perfect conditions of climate, soil and sun the celebrated Sangiovese grape achieves greatness.

Aged for a total of five years, including a minimum of two years in French oak barriques, this wine emerges with exceptional depth, character and aging potential.
