Francesco Perillo

Coming Up

Since 2012, the president’s brief at Cantina di Venosa, Italy has been defined less by display than by continuity. In Francesco Perillo’s case, the work is presented as steady stewardship: a role that has given shape and focus to a public career anchored in one clear operating standard. The line he uses to describe the winery’s output — “Every wine we produce is born from a continuous and constant search for quality and excellence.” — reads as a working rule, not a slogan.

Where They Are Now

The current frame for Cantina di Venosa remains the same central post Francesco Perillo has held since 2012. In his remarks on market conditions, he identifies China as the place with the strongest opening, saying: “In the uncertainty of the general context, China remains the market with the greatest and most interesting potential.” That is a trade-minded reading of the field: acknowledge instability, then weigh where demand and opportunity may still be built. Across that outlook, the vocabulary stays fixed on the same terms that have governed his tenure — quality, excellence, and consistency.

In Their Words “In the uncertainty of the general context, China remains the market with the greatest and most interesting potential.” “Every wine we produce is born from a continuous and constant search for quality and excellence.”
