Montecarlo is a small town situated on a hill near Lucca. Thanks to the passion and competence of the wine-dressers during last century, it has become one of the first areas in Italy to produce precious wines, and in particular "I BIANCHI" ( "THE WHITE").
In the area, at the end of 1800, French wines were introduced – such as Pinot bianco and grigio, Sauvignon, Semillon and Roussanne for the white ones, and Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah for the red ones.
The basic wines were the Tuscan Trebbiano and the Sangiovese.During the 30s it was considered the best white Italian wine – thanks to the variety of the composition, and the vinification – technics. This wine was served at the wedding of the last Italian king. At that time it was called "Lo Chablis" of Montecarlo.
The Fattoria del Buonamico is situated south-west of Montecarlo in the area of Cercatoia, it covers an area of 37 hectares, of which 24 hectares have specialized wines. Our farm was founded at the beginning of the sixties by famous turinese restorers to supply their restaurant with wines from Montecarlo. Later the farm was enlarged both as regards the lands and the cellar, in order to satisfy the always greater demand from customers who need more and more vintage wines. Today the "BUONAMICO" has reached a leader position on the market of Montecarlo for the production of vintage wines, even if it hasn’t changed the features, essential for a wine-growing, which preserved the good ancient natural taste.
