i. Biography
Antonella di Tonno works from Abruzzo, where the estate, the vineyard, and the cellar function as one working system. At Colle Corviano in Loreto Aprutino, Italy, her practice has been shaped since 2007 by sustainable winemaking and agriculture, with the land setting the pace and the cellar following through on it.
Coming Up
Ownership and winemaking sit together at Colle Corviano, and in Antonella di Tonno’s case that pairing describes a job built on direct contact with the estate. As a native of Abruzzo, she brings local knowledge to a role that stays close to the vines while also carrying responsibility for the wines that leave the property. The work reads as continuity: a producer working in place, with territory as the organizing principle.
Where They Are Now
Winemaking at Colle Corviano is tied to farming decisions before it reaches the cellar. In Antonella di Tonno’s case, the estate’s agricultural choices and vinification decisions run on the same line, so the finished wines reflect what happens in the vineyard as much as what happens after harvest. The role depends on steady oversight across the season, with the estate’s identity formed through that daily balance.
