CLEMENTINE BOUVERON and GIANMARCO ANTONUZI

LE COSTE

Le Coste, which has long since deservedly attained almost mythological status among die-hard natural wine lovers, was born when husband and wife team Gianmarco Antonuzi and Clementine Bouveron, after vast winemaking experience in Bourgogne, decided to return to Gianmarco’s native Lazio.

Today the farm, tended according to the most authentic naturalist ethos and biodynamic methods, comprises about 14 hectares. They work with ancient local varieties such as Procanico, Roscetto and Aleatico and each year, through Giamarco’s masterful hand and profound vision, they release an ever-changing range of wines each with a distinctive and marked personality, each a sublime-rustic pure work of art.

They moved to Gradoli, in Northern Lazio’s near Lago di Bolsena and about 150km from Rome, a terroir of volcanic origins rich in iron, volcanic ashes and nutrients. They started by purchasing 3 hectares of abandoned land once planted with olives and vines, then they slowly expanded also by renting venerable old vineyards.
