The Winery

The quest for excellence and love for nature has always been a passion of the Bulgari family and has brought about intense research and development of the different potentialities of the local terroirs, which have generously given back three different qualities of unique and harmonious red wines.
The cellar is for the winemaker the place where to hear the wine grow, where it is followed with dedication: a place of worship.Giovanni Bulgari wanted the cellar of Podernuovo as part of the environment and as a harmoniously part of the landscape.
