Wine Enthusiast Wine Star Awards 2025

With the “Environmental Advocate of the Year” award at the Wine Enthusiast Wine Star Awards 2025, the renowned winery Col d’Orcia in Montalcino is being honoured for its outstanding commitment to sustainability. Under the leadership of Count Francesco Marone Cinzano, this historic estate combines Tuscan winemaking tradition with consistent organic farming and a deep respect for nature, origin, and biodiversity.

Today, Col d’Orcia is regarded as one of the pioneers of sustainable agriculture in the Brunello di Montalcino region. Innovative projects such as Lot.1 demonstrate how tradition and future can come together – through wines that authentically reflect vintage, terroir, and the spirit of the time.

Weibel Weine is proud to maintain a close partnership with Col d’Orcia for over 20 years. This long-standing collaboration is built on shared values: quality, responsibility, and a genuine passion for great wines. The award once again confirms that sustainable action and outstanding winemaking go hand in hand.
