With a shared love for the ancient beauty of Abruzzo Antonella and Rodrigo Redmont planted roots in their homeland (literally) with olive trees, grapevines and a house back in 2004. Several years later they had their first vintage with their new winery I Lauri. The name “I Lauri” stems from the laurel trees that once covered the hills in Loreto Aprutino. Located just 12 miles from the Adriatic sea, this medieval town displays a picturesque balance between classical architecture and natural terrain. It is lined with centuries-old olive groves and vineyards with low lying hills overlooking the sea. To protect this land and to be a model for other wine growing regions around Italy their emphasis is sustainability. They do not use chemical insecticides in the vineyards, rather vegetation between rows to promote healthy soil and a diverse ecosystem. To conserve water and support deeper roots and distinct vines, irrigation is never used.
