DISCOVER THE PRODUCER

A family story,
rooted in Salento.

The De Falco family

The story begins in 1944, when Gabriele De Falco left Naples for Novoli—part of the region then known as “the wine cellar of Italy.”

Over the decades, the family built a winemaking tradition that traveled across Italy. A new chapter began when the younger Gabriele joined the family business, bringing renewed energy and a meticulous approach to bottling the varieties that speak most clearly of the land.

Today, Cantine De Falco represents eight decades of experience and vineyards positioned across Salento. Tradition and modern cellar practices meet in wines shaped by place, patience and family purpose.

THE REGION

Salento,
from the ground up.

At the southern edge of Puglia, Salento is the sunlit heel of Italy. Cantine De Falco’s home is Novoli, just northwest of Lecce, where the family works with grapes deeply connected to the territory.
