Claudio Cipressi

Organic certification, meticulous grape selection, traditional and non-invasive processing methods, and respect for the grape's origin. This is Claudio Cipressi.

Originally from Felice del Molise, he is a pioneer of viticulture in this region thanks to his insights from the 1990s. Encouraged by agronomist Michele Tanno to revive Tintilia, an almost-extinct indigenous grape variety, Cipressi planted the first five hectares of vineyard in 1998, a bold choice given the low yield and the necessary investment. The winery was built in 2003, and the first bottlings began a couple of years later. Today, the winery spans 15 hectares, all farmed organically, located at nearly 600 meters of altitude. Cipressi continues to produce his wine with the same dedication and care as at the beginning.

Claudio Cipressi

After nearly 30 years, Claudio Cipressi is proud to have invested in the revival of Tintilia, considered one of the most significant choices in the Italian and, in his view, European wine landscape. Tintilia best represents his land, a landscape largely still unspoiled, providing an ideal context for this grape to express freshness and longevity. The University of Molise has conducted extensive studies on Tintilia, confirming its relevance and potential.

Claudio Cipressi is a fervent supporter of Tintilia, believing that this grape variety authentically reflects the potential of his land and continues to make a significant contribution to the region's wine scene.
