THE COMPANY
Banfi was founded in 1978 through the will of Italian-American brothers John and Harry Mariani. From the beginning, the two brothers envisioned a large-scale project, integrating quality viticulture with a modern winery with the goal of always maintaining a high quality level for the wines produced. Alongside the Mariani family was Ezio Rivella, one of the greatest Italian oenologists, who immediately believed that due to the richness of the soil and the privileged microclimatic position, the acquired territories would have great development potential. During those years, the brothers John and Harry also acquired the historic Piedmontese winery Bruzzone, active since 1860 and specialized in the production of sparkling wines, to make it the Piedmont brand of the group, today Banfi Piemonte.
