Catabbo Winery in Molise Italy

The Catabbo winery in the Molise region is located in the province of Campobasso.

The Vineyards have a view of the Adriatic Sea. It's a beautiful place that Ciao Daniel has visited twice. The main grape is Tintilia.

In 2004, at the urging of Vincenzo Catabbo's children Sarah, Carla and Pasquale, a modern cellar for the vinification of Catabbo's grapes was created. The new modern cellar gives special attention to the enhancement of the quality of the wines produced; in this project, the rediscovery and vinification of native variety “Tintilia”, takes on a primary role.

There are 3 farms belonging to the Cantine Catabbo; for a total of 80 hectares, of which 40 cultivated with vineyards, all rigorously in rows, on steep terrains with a medium clayey consistency.

13 hectares are Tintilia.
