Kobrand Corporation, a leading wine and spirits importer with a distinguished portfolio of hand-selected brands from around the world, is proud to announce the addition of the renowned Villa Matilde to its iconic Italian wine portfolio. Effective immediately, Kobrand is the exclusive U.S. Importer for the Villa Matilde portfolio and is responsible for all sales and marketing activities in the United States.

Villa Matilde is known for producing premium quality classic Campania wines. Founded in 1961 by Francesco Avallone, the estate is recognized as a pioneer in the region for having revived the ancient Falerno grapes, wiped out by phylloxera in the late 1800s. Avallone’s team developed 20 original, premium clones of Falanghina, Aglianico and Piedirosso in 1965, and Villa Matilde’s first official vintage was released in 1976. Over its 57-year history, the winery has committed to producing quality wines while having a low impact on the environment. Today, the estate produces zero greenhouse gas emissions and is 100 percent estate grown and bottled. The result is a portfolio of wines that is internationally recognized for outstanding quality.
