CANTINE CAPITANI
(Winery in Latium)
Provides 1 wine tasting and winery visit from €32.50
In 1974, amongst the hills overlooking Lake Bracciano, set in the picturesque Lazio countryside, the Capitani family decided to follow their passion for wine and the culture of wine making. Francesco Capitani, founder of Trevignano Vino, established the first winery in the small town of Trevignano Romano. The company embraces the full wine production cycle, from the grafting of the plant, through tending to the vines, the harvesting of the grapes, the vinification and bottling of the wine and finally to the marketing of the finished product.

Taking advantage of the very important sounding name, our family Capitani presented in 2015 the new "Cantine Capitani" brand, highlighting those famous family traditions that have maintained and will maintain the passion for wine production. A name that has played a great role in the design of the logo, the two "C" with the three stars and a name that also has revolutionised the shape of the label, from the classic rectangular shape, has become a "shield", a game of images that shows how important it is for us to maintain our business reputation. The production takes place in a large winery, along t
