A new challenge for Baroni Capoano of Cirò Marina (Crotone), known in Italy and abroad for its wines: the production of extra virgin olive oil. Massimiliano Capoanowho has been leading the company since he was a boy, is working intensely not only on the continuous improvement of his wine labels, but to excel in wine tourism and to give value to the green gold of Calabria, namely Evo oil. The centuries-old olive trees that have always accompanied the Capoano vineyards have been implemented over time and the labeling of extra virgin olive oil is now a reality.
Massimiliano has a structural attachment to his roots, both family and local: he proudly remembers the illustrious personalities who characterized his ancient family over the centuries (including scientists, jurists, historians, artists, ecclesiastics), and with even more emotional intensity he praises the merits of the Cirotano territory which boasts the largest PDO in the region. The increasingly numerous visitors and tourists who reach the cellars and barrel cellar of the Barons Capoano every season can taste both quality wines and extra virgin olive oil generated from native and southern cultivars. Between a sip of Don Raffaele, the label that expresses the Cirò Dop Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva, a pure Gaglioppo that enhances the organoleptic properties of the prince of the native Cirotan vines, and a bruschetta seasoned with extra virgin olive oil that speaks the language of Mediterranean Diet, an encounter with the corporate history of the Capoano Barons allows you to fully immerse yourself in the deepest spirit of a territory that boasts Oenotrian and Magna Graecia origins documented by historical and archaeological evidence of the highest level.
