TENUTE FILIPPI

Tenute Filippi was born at the foot of the Lepini Mountains, in Cori, a town in Lazio dating back to the 4th century BCE. This history-rich site lies about 50 kilometers south of Rome, at roughly 400 meters above sea level, on ancient land surrounded by fields and meadows.

Owned by the Filippi family for several generations, the estate entered a new chapter in the 1990s, when Gianpiero Filippi decided to revive his ancestors’ work by acquiring vineyard land. He immediately adopted organic farming, and soon after discovered the complex world of biodynamic agriculture, which is now fully integrated across all productions.

Ethics and Philosophy

The Filippi family practices polyculture, where vegetables, olive trees, and vines coexist in harmony. Organic seed reproduction is carried out directly on the farm.

Matteo Filippi, Gianpiero’s son, is primarily responsible for vineyard work. The preservation and promotion of ancient local grape varieties has always been fundamental to Tenute Filippi’s identity. For this reason, only indigenous grapes are cultivated, including Bellone, Nero Buono, Cesanese, and Malvasia.
