Founded in the early 1980s by Francesco and Caterina Del Bono, Casa Caterina is now led by their children, Aurelio and Emilio. The estate took a defining turn after Aurelio’s time with Anselme Selosse, inspiring a shift toward biodynamic farming, riper fruit and a zero-dosage philosophy.

Across 7 hectares, the vineyards are farmed without synthetic chemicals, guided by a belief in working in harmony with nature. In the cellar, primary fermentation is mostly in stainless steel with some old barrique, while secondary fermentation is triggered using unfermented juice of the same cuvée.

Wines are aged extensively on lees—minimum 36 months, often far longer—and bottled without dosage. The result is deeply expressive, structured sparkling wine with both intensity and precision—one of the more compelling, quietly radical stories in the category.
