2025 Anniversary CELEBRATIONS: 100 YEARS!
On May 8, 1925, Delfino Cinelli signed the papers to purchase the Tenuta di Spannocchia, and so began the Cinelli family's 100 years of stewardship of this incredible property, and the development of the place we know and love today: a place committed to the environment, education, regenerative agriculture, Italian history and culture, culinary traditions, the arts, and community.
We celebrated on the evening of May 8, 2025 with a special reception in honor of Delfino before dinner. Delfino's grandaughter (and current owner) Francesca and two of her children, Chiara and Lily, were in attendance and led a toast (as seen in the video posted here!). Residents, staff, interns/apprentices, and guests joined us to honor this special man and this wonderful family!
Fittingly, our anniversary theme this month is the Cinelli Family History at Spannocchia. Explore more about the Cinelli family history—starting with Delfino's birth in 1889 and leading us to 2025—through this interactive timeline.
