In the beginning it was the Cirò Boys. It was the Nineties and theirs was a reverse revolution. They were a group of producers - which today we would define as ante litteram natural wine producers - who wanted to reaffirm the primacy of tradition and the gaglioppo grape.

Having abandoned the small oak barrels and the use (sometimes abuse) of chemistry in the vineyard, they restarted from the recovery of the alberello training system vines and from spontaneous fermentation in the cellar. This group led by Francesco Maria De Franco and Sergio Arcuri today continues to produce wines of excellent quality.
