My childhood memories are full of delicious meals prepared by my mother, with groceries purchased daily in the local town square. She stopped at the local baker, butcher, cheese and dairy shop, and local farmers displaying their produce at the daily farmer’s market. Food grown and prepared by artisans who went about their vocation with passion and integrity. My mother always bought from the same people, because she knew and trusted them. They were the community that gave her comfort. It was also her way of socializing – the exchange of news, stories, and sometimes gossip further strengthened that sense of community.
This is what “shopping or eating local” means to us at enotri – get to know and trust the people who produce what you consume. This sentiment, based on deeply rooted experiences, is expressed by our guiding principle “Roots Matter”.
The enotri portfolio is curated following these principles. We work exclusively with family run estates and passionate growers who work their land responsibly and mindfully. They preserve and protect their heritage for future generations to enjoy. They always strive to sustain the best that their land has to offer.
Let us tell their stories so that you can get to know them as if they were your friends and neighbours. Let their wines tell the stories of their origin and take you to vineyards of ancient terroir. Terroir is the sense of time and place captured in a glass of wine – we hope you will enjoy the journey.
Our wines are available at locally owned specialty retail stores and restaurants, all of which are part of the enotri community. Will you join us?
Locally yours,
Eberhard Tamm
