Notes on the Producer
Our history begins with Graziano Santucci, who founded the company in 1976, dedicating to his vineyards the love and the attention of those work wine for authentic passion. Rio Maggio is born from this deep love. In the beginning it was a small company, in which the heart of Graziano’s tradition and knowledge pulsed. But soon, he began to pass on his knowledge to his son, Simone.
It so happened that, at the death of his father, Simone Santucci, together with his wife Tiziana, took over the reins of the family business, determined to enhance and exploit its potential, in order to make the quality of the wine known to the whole world. born from these hills.
Simone and Tiziana were among the first in these areas to seriously cultivate specialized vineyards. In fact, they planted the vineyards for the production of two important DOC of the Marche region (between the provinces of Ascoli Piceno and Macerata): Rosso Piceno and Falerio dei Colli Ascolani.
During almost 50 years of life, the company has perfected its physiognomy and today presents itself as one of the leading companies in the Marche landscape. Since 1997, following their instincts and without hesitation, Simone and Tiziana have been enthusiastically working on their dream: to produce great wines and transform the family business into a brand known and appreciated all over the world.
