Founding partner Rodrigo Brian Redmont is poised at the helm of a new enterprise. Born in Rio de Janeiro and culturally a blend of American and Italian influences, Rodrigo is well educated in the art and business of wine-making. With extensive experience in managing the export sales of Italy’s leading wine estates, including Castello Banfi, Redmont joined forces with his wife, Antonella, and launched their own family estate in Loreto Aprutino, Abruzzo.

Talamonti, one of Italy’s most dynamic boutique wine producers, is the first winery to earn the GEEIS-Diversity certification. Established in 2001, the Talamonti Family Estates includes iconic sustainably produced wines from 75 hectares of estate vineyards and olive groves in the village of Loreto Aprutino (Abruzzo) in Central Italy under Talamonti (www.tenutatalamonti.it), Ilauri (www.i-lauri.it) and Colle Corviano estates (www.collecorviano.it). The vineyard-estate was founded by the Redmont-Di Tonno family and has accumulated 20 years experience in selling 150.000 cases of wine in almost 70 countries around the world.
