Producer
Garofoli
Italy
Garofoli is a historic family-owned producer in Marche, legally established in 1901 and now run by its fifth generation. Based in the Riviera del Conero, with vineyards on gently sloping hills between the Misa and Esino valleys, the estate combines continual technical innovation with respect for traditional local winemaking. Its philosophy emphasizes fidelity to the character of the territory while adapting thoughtfully to changing market needs. Garofoli also follows the Marche region’s voluntary integrated production protocol, with measures focused on limiting chemical use, protecting soil fertility and biodiversity, and ensuring traceability from vineyard to bottling.
