Valdisole

The people behind the bottle

Giuseppe Amato’s first vineyard purchase was an abandoned half-hectare of Nebbiolo found on a second-hand website. That unlikely beginning became Valdisole in 2015. With Kyriaki Kalimeri involved from the early days, the project keeps experimentation close to its heart: macerated whites, amphorae and wines bottled outside appellation rules give the pair room to explore their own ideas.
