Our family
Tuscan by choice, the story of love at first sight.
The degli Azzoni family has thousand-year-old origins
We have news of a Cavaliere Azzo. He had fallen in love with the daughter of the emperor Ottone whom he was following and decided to escape with her from Saxony to Italy.
Tradition traces the birth of the city of Alassio in Liguria back to this pair of lovers. The name Avogadro and the title of Conti were added to degli Azzoni around the year 1300, as a hereditary title attributed by the bishop to his trusted notable in the management of ecclesiastical assets.
Among our ancestors is Altenerio degli Azzoni, a valiant leader famous for having defeated the army of Cangrande della Scala on several occasions. One of the 78 statues that adorn the fifth largest square in Europe, called Prato della Valle in Padua, is dedicated to him.
Authenticity and protection of the territory
The presence in this area has been marked by the desire of our family to respect the authenticity and characteristics of the Tuscan countryside, alternating different types of crops but always preserving their typicality.
Our goal is to keep a strong presence in the area, with a constantly innovative approach. Vineyards and other crops, wooded areas and protected reserves alternate and harmonize in harmony with the conformation of the land, producing wines and genuine products of the highest quality.
