Among Italy's 20 best white wines is the "Zibibbo" from Cantine Benvenuto winery in Francavilla Angitola.

This recognition comes from the British magazine Decanter, one of the leading winemaking publications with a monthly average of 2.2 million readers worldwide.

This recognition represents confirmation not only for the Benvenuto winery but also for the entire Calabrian winemaking sector, which is making progress in terms of quality, tradition, and excellence. Decanter experts consider the "Zibibbo Benvenuto" to be the best Calabrian white wine, calling it "an impressive surprise with a great personality."

"We are very proud of this recognition," stated Giovanni Celeste Benvenuto, "because it recognizes the fact that we were the first to vinify Zibibbo PGI in Calabria, reviving the region's millennia-old viticultural history while also focusing on research and innovation. Caring for the land is an ancestral and ancient profession, marked by the rhythms imposed by nature, and it is essential for us to continue our commitment to protecting nature and enhancing this extraordinary region that is Calabria." For Cantine Benvenuto, this is further proof of a reputation acknowledged by the national and international press, which has allowed us to establish ourselves in global markets ranging from the United States to Canada, as well as Japan, France, and the rest of Europe.
