After 13 years of having a restaurant in Belgium, Filippo returned to this hometown in Sicily where he became a fulltime farmer and winemaker.
The agricultural farm “Lamoresca” is situated in the heart of Sicily, in the small town of San Michele di Ganzaria.
He started the farm in the year 2000 with a small olive grove, today he cultivates 25 hectares of vines, olive trees, prickly pears and other fruit trees. Lamoresca, is the only winery in this area southwest of Catania, which is a combination of compressed sandstone soils mixed with calcium and iron rich clay. The vines are a mix of Nero d’Avola, Grenache, Nerocapitano (Frappato) and Nerello Mascalese for the reds, and Vermentino Corso, for the white wine; all of which are worked with any use of chemicals.
The wines are naturally fermented without temperature control and only minimal sulfur is used if deemed absolutely necessary.

Bernardo Estévez came into winemaking after having worked as a mechanic in the large city of Vigo on the Spanish west coast. He moved to Arnoia, a small town in southern Ribeiro close to the Portuguese border in 2009 to pursue making wine full time. Now, Bernardo farms 3ha of vines in five areas of Ribeiro – all by him self. The work is organic and biodynamic, applying treatments and infusions that he makes at home.
Eponymous with Chambolle, Ghislaine Barthod works around 6 hectares in this legendary part of Burgundy. While the plots are scattered and the soil varies, it mainly consists of limestone in different states.
Camille is a shooting star in Burgundy! She works alongside her partner, Canadian-born Matt Chittick, who she met while they were both working at the Domaine de Bellene in Beaune. Camille started her project in 2016 in a 20m2 garage without electricity but has quickly become one of the most prominent young winemakers in Burgundy.
