The name “iLauri” stems from the ancient roots of our birth place, Loreto Aprutino, once covered in Laurus nobilis, or laurel trees.
The celebrated Pinot Grigio varietal has been known since the Middle Ages in the Burgundy region and derives from a bud mutation of Pinot Noir. In partnership with they winemaker, the I Lauri’s team supervise an exquisite parcel in the Northeastern region of Veneto, while the name stems from one of our area’s most important rivers, born at almost 2.000 meters at the foot of the Gran Sasso.
