San Patrignano

San Patrignano: wines with 2000 souls.

Ospedaletto – San Patrignano welcomes all young men and women who have serious drug abuse problems, regardless of ideology, social background, or religion, accepting no payment or funding from their families or the government. They offer them a home, healthcare, legal assistance and the opportunity to study, learn a job, change their lives, and regain their status as full members of society. The vineyards of San Patrignano extend over the hillsides of Coriano and look out over Rimini and the Adriatic Sea, a mere three miles away as the crow files. The program of expansion and development will be based on tight-spacing vineyards, rigorous clonal selection, investment in agricultural machinery and the construction of new fermenting and aging cellars for which ground has already been broken.

Community – Created by visionaries, managed by experts, SP is an admirable project where passion for grape cultivation and wine making (alongside other 54 trades) as part of a lengthy process, are used to fulfill the spirit of people who lost their ways.
