Family friends have always known the Gufo’s wine. They were drinking it with the salvia and rosemary scented roasts at the end-of-summer dinners that Giuseppe Muzzillo (known as “il Gufo”, the owl) has always loved to organize. Turning this wine, once only thought for conviviality, into a small but qualified expression of the emergent Calabrese enology has been the challenge that we have accepted and faced with an essential work philosophy: respect for the territory, low yields, maximum care in the field and during oenological practices.Today, wines of Terre del Gufo are offered to those who love products of superior craftsmanship in Italy and abroad, telling a story of Calabria, of its nature, its history and its vocations.->Discover all the wines of Terre del Gufo Winery
