MEDICI ERMETE

For more than one hundred years the name of the Medici family has been synonym with excellent Lambrusco and quality wine. At the beginning of the 20th Century Remigio, the founder, set up a wine cellar for the production of Lambrusco with the purpose to exploit in the best possible way the family's vineyards, situated between the Via Emilia and the first slopes of the Enza valley.

His son, Ermete, was then responsible for marketing and expanding this brand. Today, the fourth generation of the Medici family still shows the same passion and skill every day in the vineyard as well as in the cellars that have made them protagonists in the world of wine.

The vinification process and the aging of the wine take place in the cellars of Baglio Ceuso, a building dating back to the second half of the 19th century. A typical example of Sicilian rural architecture, the main purpose of the "baglio" was to serve the agricoltural needs of the wine producers. Nowadays it combines in a wise balance of old tradition and modern technology.

The old farmhouses and the extraordinary geometry of the rows of the vines witness the hard work of generations of men who inhabited this land since ancient times.
