Our History

Tenuta Denisi

Who We Are

We are artisan producers working in the heart of the Greek-speaking area. The agricultural enterprise was found by Beniamino and Rosa and improved over time thanks to our love for nature and passion for traditional products. Domenico, an enthusiastic and ambitious agronomist, has given life to a sustainable business idea to enhance an area that has historically witnessed ancient civilisations. The project aims to produce good wine and extra virgin olive oil, which have always been excellent local products, in a dynamic perspective of change and progress. Immersed in a charming place full of primitive beauty, we want to enhance the “terroir”, that exclusive relationship that links the vine to the microclimate and the mineral characteristics of the soil and which determines the absolute uniqueness of the wine. We are an opportunity, where intense flavors and natural wonders meet to give quality and emotions.

The Territory

The agricultural estate has a strategic position thanks to the proximity to the sea and mountains. It is located in the southernmost area of Calabria, within the Greek Area of the Metropolitan City of Reggio Calabria. On one side it overlooks the Aspromonte National Park and on the other it faces the wide Amendolea river, with a panoramic view of the Ruffo Castle and the Ionian Sea, up to the mount Etna Volcano in nearby Sicily. The soil is stony-sandy, it has excellent drainage and does not retain humidity, giving a greater concentration of flavors in the fruits. The vineyards and olive groves are exposed to the sun from dawn to dusk. The temperate climate favors the cultivation of genuine products.
