Tucked into the verdant hills of Tramonti—the “green heart” of the Amalfi Coast—Tenuta San Francesco is a living tribute to the past and a shining example of what the future of wine can be when tradition, sustainability, and passion converge. Founded in 2004 by four childhood friends—Gaetano and Generoso Bove, Vincenzo D’Avino, and Luigi Giordano—the estate was born not just to make wine, but to save history. 

Basilisco Winery, located in Barile within the province of Potenza, is a prestigious estate in the renowned Vulture wine region of Basilicata in Southern Italy. Originally founded in the early 1990s, the winery was acquired by the Capaldo family (of Feudi di San Gregorio) in 2011 as part of their Tenute Capaldo project, which aims to cultivate high-quality wines while respecting the traditions and terroirs across Italy. 

Queirón is a project of the Pérez Cuevas family in the heart of the old winemaking district of Quel, a village to the east of Rioja where wine has long been made in tiny family wineries hewn into the rock.
