Tenute Rubino
Tenuto Rubino owners Luigi and his wife Romina introduced the history of the winery to kick off the evening.
Luigi explained that his father Tommaso Rubino discovered the Italian winery in the 1980s.
The reason is that he wanted to make popular once again the historic Susumaniello grape.
