Characteristics of the experience
Host presentation
Tenuta del Buonamico
The Buonamico Estate is located southwest of Montecarlo, in the Cercatoja area, and covers an area of 100 hectares, 48 of which are dedicated to specialized vineyards. The winery was founded by renowned restaurateurs from Turin in the early 1960s, with the aim of furnishing their restaurants with wines from Montecarlo. Today the winery, owned by the Fontana Family, has expanded in terms of both vineyards and wine cellar. While preserving the essential characteristics of a traditional winemaking style, "Buonamico" has now become one of Montecarlo's leading wine producers.
