Company

¿Who are we in the company ?

Azienda Agricola Bianchi, located in Arogno, in the heart of Ticino, was founded in 1998.

Since then, we have been dedicated to the production of wine, honey and derivatives following strict principles of sustainability and respect for biodiversity.

Our winery is led by brothers Gabriele and Martino Bianchi, respectively an engineer winemaker and a certified viticulturist, who carry on the mission of combining innovation with family tradition in organic farming.

Our Philosophy

Our business philosophy rests on the foundation that respect for nature and biodiversity are essential to the production of wholesome, high-quality food. Every Bianchi product, from wines to honeys, is a reflection of our dedication to organic farming, certified Bio Suisse, and our commitment to environmental conservation.

Our Products

Wines: The diversity of our soils allows us to grow unique grape varieties. For Bianchi wines, we rely on Johanniter and Solaris varieties, while our red wines and rosé sparkling wines are derived from innovative grape varieties of the Cabernet Sauvignon family. Since 2012, we have also introduced the cultivation of Merlot, Syrah and Chardonnay, again following the principles of organic farming.
Honey: Beekeeping is a fundamental element of our business. With over 500 hives, we produce varied honeys that capture the essence of Ticino, following a sustainable approach that respects the natural cycle of bees.
Other Products: In addition to wines and honey, we offer a variety of products including grappa, nocino, and herbal wine vinegar. These items exemplify our desire to enhance every aspect of our agricultural production while offering unique products that reflect the richness of our land.
