Description

MARCO GAVIO Tuscany, Italy

The UNESCO world heritage listed Trulli break up the picturesque vineyards of Puglia. The original Agricola Gavioli was founded in the 1970s in the heart of Tuscany. Once passed down from father to son, it was decided the business needed a new lease of life so the Marco Gavio brand was introduced. Classic, stylish Tuscan reds, with Chianti Classico and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano the stand-outs.

A story that began in the 1970s, when Sergio Gavioli, who moved to Chianciano Terme, opened a small winery… a few grapes selected to produce high quality wines, immediately appreciated all over the world.

Sergio Gavioli transmitted his passion to his son Marco, who today has the leading role in the ambitious project to give a new identity to Agricola Gavioli.

Marco has selected a new location with an exciting view of the vineyards, a symbol of his immense passion for grapes. Those same grapes are the real protagonist of a quality wine.

Marco’s vision has come to life in the new corporate brand. The name Marco Gavio is accompanied by a shield whose modern lines combine the spirits of Tuscany: a land of wine tradition with a constant look to the future.

From the experience of the Rinomata Cantina Tombacco and from the creativity of the designer Raimondo Sandri, new wines were born! They will be the true ambassadors of this story.

The new logo is the absolute protagonist of the labels and is accompanied by a golden line: an element that symbolically embraces the bottle… exactly like Marco embraces the vines, so that grapes grow strong!

L’Atelier Wines

L’Atelier by Aramis Vineyards was founded in 2012, dedicated to supplying a hand-selected range of quality wines to the independent on and off trade. From small beginnings we now operate across NSW, QLD, VIC and WA as well as in our home state of South Australia. Our distribution company was founded on our absolute belief that there was nobody better to represent our McLaren Vale brand than our own team. From that point our mission was clear - to bring together a collection of wine that would complement and match the quality of our own, and to present these to premium retail and hospitality trade across Australia. We believe in working collaboratively with carefully selected producers from Australia and beyond, each sharing the same passion and commitment to quality. Inspired by the Ateliers of 19th century Paris, we see ourselves as a meeting place for highly talented craftspeople at the top of their trade. Our portfolio consists of premium boutique wines from across Australia, New Zealand, Italy and Spain, all carefully selected to represent the very essence of their region, but most importantly at approachable price-points. We do not aim to build a trophy cabinet, we believe that you do not have to spend a fortune to drink like a king, and our selection reflects our ability to seek out wines that consistently over-deliver and represent the very best value.
