Our Cosmetics

Not only wine…

During the 2012 edition of the Sana fair in Bologna, the possibilities hidden behind the marcs (grapes’ scraps) of our organic grapes were shown to us. An acquaintance of ours, who works in the sector of natural make up, had already mentioned to us Frescosmesi, a young reality who could help us developed a line of products that could go with our wines. So, we decided, a bit for fun, to create a cosmetic line of three preparations made of Cabernet Sauvignon marcs: hand cream, body cream and body scrub.

We started proposing these products as Christmas gifts, and, given the positive feedback we received, we started selling them through some shops in Bologna and around the province and directly in our shop.
We think that being able to offer a local product is important, a product capable of speaking to the people that know and live the territory. We don’t rule out the possibility to expand the cosmetics range to offer with our main product, which obviously remains wine.
