Ettore Galasso is one of the biggest Estate Bottler in Abruzzo. The production is focused on indigenous varietals such as Montepulciano, Trebbiano, and Pecorino. Yet, in the last 15 years, the winery has started growing, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Nero, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Primitivo. Native of Trentino, in the North-East of Italy, the Galasso family moved to Abruzzo at the end of the 17th century, buying a great deal of land. They started producing and trading extra virgin olive oil, fruits and grapes becoming one of the first Italian producers to sell the “made in Italy” abroad. During the 1960’s, Ettore Galasso took over most of the family land - 350 hectares, stretching from the Apennines to the Adriatic sea - and started bottling his own wine. He then established his cellar in Loreto Aprutino, the cradle of Montepulciano d\'Abruzzo! Today, Ettore Galasso is still fully committed to the winery with the help of his two daughters and 60 people, between vineyards, the production, and the office.
