Saladini Pilastri
Although this property has been in the Saladini Pilastri family for centuries, it is only in the last 5 years or so that they have invested heavily in the business. This coincided with the arrival of estate manager Domenico d’Angelo. He began to transform the vineyards to make them organic and this process is almost complete. Situated in the southern part of the Marches, on the border with Abruzzi, the Mediterranean sun not only ripens the grapes wonderfully, but it helps to make rot in the vineyard a rare occurrence over the long dry summers of the region. The grapes for the red wines are Sangiovese and Montepulciano, though there are plans afoot to plant some Syrah too.
