Family Wines

 

For almost 200 years, the Bocelli’s have crafted classic Italian wines on their small single estate.

Beginning in the 18th century, they were mere sharecroppers on the property of the noble Corsini family, On March 21, 1831, however, Gaspero Bocelli used all his savings to liberate himself and became a landowner. Acquiring the small Poggioncino parcel for the sum of 1000 scudi, he began growing jangiovese.

Seven generations later, Alberto and Andrea Bocelli have revolutionized the cellar, transforming their family farm into a world-class winery that blends the past and present.
Needless to say, the two brothers have embarked on various other paths over the years. Alberto earned his degree in architecture, and Andrea studied in law prior to his career as a world-renowned tenor.

Over time, however the estate has remained a center of gravity for both and, Renaissance men to the core, they have struck upon the perfect balance of art and science with their creations.

Bruschetta-Francesca-prosecco-doc

Prosecco doc

produced with Prosecco grapes, this sparkling wine has a subtle aroma of fruit and flowers that make it delightfully light and lively on the palate. Unlike many Chamoagnes it does not tend towards too marked acidity, rather it stimulates the throat with a softness punctuated by a minerality that remains simple in the best way. A perfect perlage makes it an ideal choice for any occasion.

Bocelli 1831 Selection Wines

The Bocelli family originates from humble beginnings as sharecroppers in Tuscany during the 18th century. In 1831, Gaspero Bocelli became a small landowner, starting a family tradition of naming the firstborn sons with names beginning with “A,” such as Andrea and Amos. The family demonstrated ingenuity, notably with grandfather Alcide, who invented farming machinery and established “Officine Bocelli,” which supported the family until the 1980s.

Despite their success in agriculture and business, the Bocelli family embraced different paths, including Andrea’s passion for music. Today, Andrea Bocelli is globally renowned as a symbol of Italian bel canto and for his philanthropic efforts, spreading positivity and hope worldwide.

“In 2011, the Bocelli Family, for the very first time expanded its production through partnerships with other exceptional wine growers, to create an expanded range of Bocelli family wines."

“ The unique and non-traditional label designs creates a strong identity and branding to the Bocelli Family, which was first seen on the original wine labels produced by Andrea and Alberto’s grandfather, Alcide in the 1950’s, and reflects on the vision on the original wines created and the on-going heritage of the wine collection today."
