Cala Bennati Wines Continues U.S. Expansion

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — Feb. 6, 2025 — Cala Bennati, a Venetian white wine steeped in tradition, is proud to announce its expansion into the New York and New Jersey markets, with plans to introduce the brand in California and Nevada in the second half of 2025. The brand’s significant growth reflects the warm reception from casual drinkers and key accounts alike. The crisp, versatile Pinot Grigio pairs beautifully with seafood, pasta, and vegetable-based dishes, making it a favorite across a variety of cuisines.

Dating back to 1499, Cala Bennati is produced at the oldest wine estate in Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy. The Bennati family has owned the historic Tenuta Villanova vineyard for 94 years, with Greg Bennati reclaiming full ownership in 2023. Upholding a legacy of Venetian winemaking, the family blends centuries-old traditions with modern eco-friendly practices to produce a luxurious, authentic, and innovative wine.

Cala Bennati's 2023 Vintage Pinot Grigio is a straw-yellow white wine with a bouquet reminiscent of white and yellow flowers. Its soft, full, and fragrant flavor makes it versatile for pairing with a wide range of cuisines, while its vegan-friendly, sustainably produced formula - free of artificial additives - underscores the brand's commitment to quality and environmental stewardship.

As the brand continues its U.S. expansion, Greg Bennati remains dedicated to preserving the quality and craftsmanship of Cala Bennati while offering high-end wine at an accessible price. With retail pricing starting at $21.99, the wine presents an approachable luxury making it a standout choice for any occasion.

Cala Bennati is currently featured on the menus of top restaurants in New York and Miami, including Cipriani, Casa Tua, Forte Dei Marmi, and The Setai, and is also available at select retailers such as Maison Mura and Milam’s Market. With plans to introduce an Italian rosé and a premium red wine in the future, Cala Bennati is poised to secure its position in the luxury wine market for years to come.
