Torre dei Beati’s oldest Montepulciano vineyard was planted in 1972 by Fausto’s father-in-law Rocco. He sold grapes and eventually passed along seven hectares, no equipment and a destroyed old house to his daughter Adrianna Galasso, and Fausto. Those were the original materials of Torre dei Beati. Now the property is 17 hectares, very close to the mountains (Gran Sasso is in full view) and close to the sea. These are good neighbors: cool air flowing down from the mountain to the sea is excellent circulation, ideal for an organic estate committed to avoiding chemical fungicides.
