The name “iLauri” stems from the ancient roots of our birth place, Loreto Aprutino, once covered in Laurus nobilis, or laurel trees.
The name Bajo (Bay) given to the town’s most important street comes from the hair color of some horses. Bay is one of the most common coat colors in many horse breeds. iLauri conceives this precious Montepulciano with each new harvest; a wine with a name rooted in the territory it belongs to.
