Famiglia Casadei

What Famiglia Casadei does

Famiglia Casadei is a privately held, family-owned Italian wine and food producer founded in the early 1990s by Stefano and Anna Casadei. The company operates four distinct agricultural estates across Italy—Castello del Trebbio in Chianti Rufina (350 hectares, 54 ha vineyards, ~350,000 bottles/year), Tenuta Olianas in Sardinia (35 ha vineyards, ~210,000 bottles/year, the only Demeter-certified winery in Sardinia), Tenuta Casadei in Alta Maremma (~170,000 bottles/year), and Terre di Romena in Casentino (~30,000 bottles/year)—producing approximately 760,000 bottles of wine annually across 121 hectares of vineyards and a total 430-hectare landholding. Wine production is anchored by a proprietary Biointegrale® methodology formalized as a 10-principle Decalogue and a distinctive terracotta amphora winemaking technique using Georgian qvevri-style and Tuscan Impruneta-crafted vessels.

The company's product portfolio spans the Le Anfore di Elena Casadei amphora wine line, the I PURI food products line (stoneground Senatore Cappelli wheat flour and pasta, EVO olive oil, honey, saffron, balsamic vinegar, spelt), and two owned restaurants (La Sosta del Gusto at Castello del Trebbio and Dulcis in Fundo in San Gimignano) plus agriturismo accommodations. Revenue is generated through a multi-channel go-to-market model: a proprietary direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform (shop.famigliacasadei.it), on-site estate sales and wine tourism, company-operated restaurants, and international distribution through importers and wholesalers serving Italy, Switzerland, Germany, France, Sweden, the UK, North America, and Asia. The business employs 51–100 people and remains under family control with the founders' three children (Lorenzo, Laura, Elena) actively involved in operations.

Revenue model

1. Wine Sales: Famiglia Casadei generates revenue primarily through the sale of wines produced across its four estates: Castello del Trebbio (Chianti Rufina, ~350,000 bottles/year), Olianas (Sardinia, ~210,000 bottles/year), Tenuta Casadei (Alta Maremma, ~170,000 bottles/year), and Terre di Romena (Casentino, ~30,000 bottles/year). Total production approximately 760,000 bottles annually. Wines are sold via direct e-commerce, estate visits, and international distribution.
2. Hospitality Services: The company operates hospitality venues including La Sosta del Gusto restaurant at Castello del Trebbio (medieval building with agriturismo) and Dulcis in Fundo restaurant in San Gimignano. These venues serve as both revenue streams and customer acquisition channels for wine sales.
3. Food Products — I PURI Line: Alongside wine, the company produces and sells a food product line branded 'I PURI', including stoneground Senatore Cappelli wheat flour and pasta, EVO olive oil (from Olianas and Castello del Trebbio), honey, saffron, balsamic vinegar, spelt, and other seasonal specialties. Sold through the same e-commerce platform and potentially through restaurant and estate channels.
