Ocone
Ocone is located in the town of Ponte on the slopes of Mount Taburno
which lends its name to Ocone's unique DOC. Giuseppe Ocone founded this
estate in 1910 when most of the wine from Campagnia was sold in bulk to
the north. When Giuseppe's son, Luigi, joined the firm, Ocone distinguished
itself from other producers by isolating the region's traditional varietals
grown nowhere else in the world. Innovations in temperature control and
contemporary bottling established Ocone as a world class wine estate. Domenico,
the third generation of Ocone producers, is dedicated to the estate's biodynamic,
totally organic viticulture. Ocone farms approximately 70 acres, half estate
and half under contract from local growers.

vineyards - some planted over 100 years ago - produce exceptionally low
yields ensuring deep ruby color and rich, full-bodied flavors that are both
