Riconoscimenti

The aim of 100 Eccellenze Italiane is to honour the top “100 centres of excellence in Italy” and the precious contribution that each one makes to the development of the nation.
The 100 centres of excellence in Italy paint a picture of the best the country has to offer: its people, companies and organisations whose work has contributed and continues to contribute to promoting a distinctive brand that is recognised and appreciated around the world.
Colle delle 100 Bottiglie received the honour for its bold decision to return to sustainable practices in the vineyard and in the production of wine and oil in two historic crus in the Lucchesia, both of which had gone into a decline that appeared to be irreversible.
The symbolic acknowledgement was given directly by the president of the Associazione LIBER Verdiana Dell’Anna, by Sergio Santoro, president of the Committee of Honour and former co-chair of the Council of State, and by the publisher Riccardo Dell’Anna.

Falstaff is the oldest Austrian wine magazine and a guide that is the go-to reference for professionals in the sector. It is the most important lifestyle magazine in Central Europe and is distributed in Germany, Switzerland and Austria.

The editorial board have also tasted our wines and assigned them scores that are truly amazing… especially considering the fact that our wines are natural organic blends, and all those who work in the sector know how hard it is to adopt this policy – and this makes our satisfaction all the greater!

Italy’s first and still only publication that deals solely with products from agriculture that is certified as organic or in the process of conversion. The wines are listed and ranked in the Organic Wine section of the guide, assigning between two and five leaves to each one.

Then there are the finest wines, with a special mention, in the form of a gold leaf, awarded to those that have distinguished themselves above all others.
