The Producer
Founded two generations ago by Giovanni Iorio, the Lauranti vineyard was named after the team of field workers, affectionately referred to as “the graduates”, who helped him turn the nutrient rich soil from supporting more traditional agricultural fields into vineyards of carefully tended vines.
Passion, experience and vineyards, nourished by a rich land among the foliage of the Sannio dormant, Lauranti produces wine with a color that reassures,and by the scent that welcomes a flavor that is harmony. A wine that tells its story, that speaks of tradition, transmitted and accepted as a gift to be kept, a legacy full of affections, memories and values
