Interesting facts
The name Lammidia comes from the local Abruzzese dialect word for the evil eye. When founders Davide and Marco made their first wine in 2010, fermentation would not start. They called in a local grandmother who performed a ritual to cast away the evil eye, and the fermentation successfully began.
