Settefrati. Atina DOC Wine and Cabernet di Atina DOC Wine

The history of Cabernet di Atina begins in the 19th century when the agronomist Pasquale Visocchi, then mayor of Atina, imported some varieties of French grapes into Val di Comino.

In those years the phylloxera had destroyed most of the vineyards in Europe and in many areas it was decided to restart production using international vines.

The cabernet of Val Comino has earned acclaim and awards for its quality which has been recognized with the appellation Atina DOC and Cabernet di Atina DOC.
