MIGRANTE (Italy, Lazio, Olevano Romano)
FROM... TRUCKS TO WINE: The winery was founded in 2000 by the couple Lorenzo Fanfarillo and
Luciana Milana with the help of Luciana's brother, Guido when this trio bought a small plot of land
right on top of Olevano Romano hill, an ideal location for the vine cultivation. The estate itself
hasn't changed much in more than a decade, while Lorenzo's wines, with his improved agricultural
technique gained a lot of consideration in Italy. According to his wife Luciana "Lorenzo wasn't
really into wine, he was a truck driver but day in, day out he started to dislike his old time job. On
the other hand my father has been one of the founding members of the local wine co-op and I grew
so much related to this world and our beloved local grape variety, Cesanese. I really didn't like the
idea to lose my family tradition ...". Luciana's father always believed that the future of Cesanese
would have been marked by selling this wine outside Lazio region: a sort of prediction policy that
affected the estate name when time came to pick up one. Migrante (Emigrant) is related to the
verb “emigrare” (to emigrate), hence the name which completely merged into Lucian's father
philosophy. With Lorenzo's painstaking study of viticulture the destiny was written once again,
and wine family tradition survived to any attempt to move away from this path.
After having launched a progressive quality practice in the vineyard and cellar, now Migrante -
after 13 consecutive harvests (market debut dates back in 2003) - is considered a solid, qualitative
driven name of the new wave movement that put Lazio appellations like Olevano Romano and
Piglio on the wine map reaching out critics attention.View entire presentation
