The Terre Margaritelli company was founded in 1950 by Fernando Margaritelli who, retiring from entrepreneurial activity at the age of 60, decided to start cultivating vines for his own pleasure to produce wine for himself and for the whole family. This activity remains in fact only at the service of the family and as an expression of the passion of the Margaritelli family for the land. From this first starting point, in 2000 Mr. Giuseppe, Fernando's son, just to honor his father's passion, decided to expand the property and give life to the Terre Margaritelli winery project. From here begins the replanting of the vineyard, the first vinifications and the transition to organic.
