The Dream

A family is like a bunch of grapes. Every grape is perfect, different from the others, rich in variety.

Still, it's in the bond with the others that it gains sense.

Our dream is born from here.

Like a grapevine we are tied to our land, and to that of our grandfathers and our family.

From this land we offer you the best fruits, so that our family´s history goes on with the rythm of the seasons like a luxuriant grapevine.

The Family

Family portraitThe Ciulli Family is tied with a deep love to the beautiful Reggello's hills, since the time when grandfather Vincenzo - called Sor Vincenzo by Sant'Ellero's people - lived in the Red House at the centre of his lands.

Armando - Larmandone - following his father's footsteps, has carried on with the wine and oil production, turning a country farm into an estate devoted to a top quality production.

Antonio, the third generation, has dedicated his family's estate to San Gorgone, the land Patron Saint, as to carry on a tradition that took place already in the XVI century when the people of the land honoured the local church "Badia Vecchia" to his memory.

San Gorgone has been particularly venerated because he bears good harvest and rich vintage. In the countryside they still say: "If the weather is rainy for San Gorgone´s day, the vintage will be rich" (San Gorgone´s Day is on 6th September)

The Land

Reggello's hills overlook Florence in a nonstop ups and downs of olive and vine yards.

The farmhouse of our estate suddenly appears, hidden by the bends of a tiny country road.

These are Terre di San Gorgone, where the land and the seasons speak to each other at the rythm that takes you back to a time that is simply lost.

Getting its harmony always amazes us and we are guardians of it.
