The old Lenotti winery

Lenotti Winery was founded in 1906 by the Lenotti family. Initially, they focused on the production and sale of barrel-aged wine. Later, they transitioned to producing quality wines exclusively bottled. Today, it remains a true family business. Giancarlo Lenotti is the oenologist, production manager, and facilitator; Marina Lenotti is the sales manager for the domestic market; and their son, Claudio, is the export manager. Innovation is a key element at the winery, and in 2005, they completely renovated and modernized the vinification process, barrel storage, and bottling plant. This allowed Giancarlo Lenotti (father of the family and oenologist) to use significantly lower amounts of sulfites in the bottling plant. The positive result is that the wines retain their original aromas right through to the glass. Try it yourself, open a Lenotti wine and pour it straight into a glass, you will be surprised by the many aromas.
