Colle Manora was founded in 1981 by Eleonora Limonci, but more than 10 years ago the winery was passed into the hands of Giorgio Schön and Marina Orlandi Contucci. Since, they have planted new vineyards, renovated the cellars, and the company has been completely transformed. Italian winemaking is renowned worldwide for its dedication to quality, style and passion. Colle Manora is no different. Colle Manora is a proud terrority that teams its indigenous grapes with international varieties to produce wines with very unique character.
