Tenuta Celimarro

Welcome to Tenuta Celimarro: A Winery Steeped in History

Located in the picturesque town of Castrovillari, Tenuta Celimarro is nestled in Calabria, a region celebrated for its rich archaeological heritage. This area boasts fossil remains from prehistoric times and remnants from the Roman Empire. The estate itself is part of a stunning rural complex that dates back to the 18th century, historically owned by the Varcasia family, who continue to maintain its beauty and charm.

From Vine to Wine: The Birth of Unique Varietals

Tenuta Celimarro began its winemaking journey in 2006, planting its first vines across 20 hectares, complemented by 5 hectares of ancient olive groves. In 2013, the winery proudly released its inaugural bottle of Magliocco red wine, crafted with minimal intervention to highlight the region's unique terroir. The following year marked the debut of their first autochthonous white wine, Greco Bianco, showcasing the estate's commitment to local varietals.

Award-Winning Creations

In 2016, the winery expanded its offerings with a Rosé made from Aglianico grapes. Since then, many of their wines have garnered prestigious awards, both locally and internationally. Notable selections include the signature Magliocco Hoerco, the refreshing Greco Bianco, the delightful Beyond Time Rosato, and the elegant Montonico white. Today, the winery is led by the passionate young winemaker Valerio Cipolla, whose dedication is evident in every bottle produced.
