About Angelo Delea

Delea's extensive range reflects the full diversity of Ticino: connoisseurs will find the warmth and zest for life of Switzerland's southernmost canton in Delea wines. Former restaurateur Angelo Delea fell in love with the world of wine in Bordeaux, where he laid the foundation for Vini & Distillati Delea. Today, his sons Davide and Cesare run the company and impress with a wonderful range of wines, from easy-drinking Merlot to the premium wines of the Carato line.

The Region

Ticino is the southernmost canton of Switzerland and, thanks to a climate with the highest summer temperatures in the country, is excellently suited for viticulture. In over 80 percent of the nine districts of Bellinzona, Blenio, Leventina, Locarno, Mendrisio, Riviera, Vallemaggia, and Mesolcina, the Bordeaux grape variety Merlot is cultivated. Due to the alpine topography, the wine-growing areas are scattered and consist of small plots on mountain slopes with a thin layer of soil over granite bedrock. Nowhere else in Switzerland is the density of quality winemakers and wines higher, which led to the introduction of a system similar to the Italian DOC in 1997. The full-bodied, aromatic, and age-worthy red wines are among the best in Switzerland and reach an international standard.
