History

Luigi Lavorata first took up viticulture in the mid-1800s; the family turned it into a business in 1958, and from the 1970s Ilario Lavorata carried the wines to national and international markets.

Now run by his children Domenico, Danilo and Adele, it makes some twenty labels, above all the Bivongi DOC of the Locride.
