More about today’s wineries
Fattoria Le Terrazze
The story of Fattoria Le Terrazze goes back to 1882 when the winery was established on the hills surrounding Numana. Since the late nineteenth century, the Terni family has been growing Montepulciano grapes and transforming them into wine.
Under the guidance of winemaker Federico Curtaz, Antonio and Georgina Terni today produce around 90,000 bottles per year from their 16 hectares of vineyards.
The Conero is a particularly interesting area for red wines. Its most typical product is in fact Rosso Conero, available both as a DOC wine and as the Sassi Neri DOCG Reserve.
In addition to Rosso Conero, Fattoria Le Terrazze also produces IGT Chaos, a wine resulting from a blend of Montepulciano, Syrah and Merlot, Chardonnay Le Cave, Pinkfluid rosé and Donna Giulia, a sparkler made entirely from Montepulciano grapes.
Furthermore, the estate produces extra-virgin olive oil of excellent quality from their olive groves of the Frantoio, Leccino and Pendolino varieties which surround the estate..

La Calcinara
The winery covers 20 ha of vineyards in the hamlet of Calcinara in Candia in the commune of Ancona within the Conero appellation. A young winery run by a dynamic generation of artists, Paolo and Eleonora Berluti, La Calcinara aims to promote its own area with wines that are regional made using grape varieties which are indigenous to the Conero area. The philosophy behind the winery is to lift Rosso Conero to its apex by creating wines which are passionate, complex and warm and accompany both celebratory moments as well as moments which are more difficult. We look after the vineyards personally, with skill and continuous development so that our wines are an expression of elegance and excellence.
