Colle Florido

The people behind the bottle

Andrea Ugolotti and Daniela Trolio built Colle Florido around the hills of Pianella, where vineyards sit among olives, gardens, pasture and woodland. Andrea brought a sommelier’s experience; Daniela designed their naturally cool wooden cellar. Clay and limestone, Adriatic breezes and the nearby Apennines frame their work with Montepulciano and Trebbiano, with biodiversity as much a part of the farm as the vines.
