THE HISTORY

1890: The Tamburini Family’s first wine business is established. Great-great-grandfather Franco plants the first vineyards and begins production of Chianti and olive oil. • 1930: The family tradition continues as Franco’s son, Italo, expands both the firm’s cultivated land and production capacity, maintaining the high standards of quality and deep respect for the land inherited from his father. • 1967: Mauro, Italo’s son, carries on the family business, further expanding the firm’s vineyards to their current size of approximately fifty hectares. • 2002: Mauro’s daughter Emanuela enters the firm, initiating a new and significant investment in the improvement of production and vineyard technologies. Emanuela, professionally trained in enology, modifies the firm’s approach to the production and sale of its wines. Following nearly a century of producing unbottled wine for sale to other wineries, Agricola Tamburini begins to bottle its first wines directly on site, and wines bearing the Tamburini family name move into the international market for the first time. • 2005: The entire Tamburini production of extra-virgin olive oil is certified ORGANIC • 2013: Tamburini expands from its headquarters in Chianti to a second site in Montalcino where DOCG (“designation of origin guaranteed”) Brunello di Montalcino is made.
