I often think back to the beginning, when they came looking for me and together we created the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.banfi.it\/eng\/banfi-castle\/\">Castello Banfi<\/a>are indelible memories of a lifetime of work, joys and rewards'.<\/p>\n<h2>The moving farewell to Harry Mariani<\/h2>\n<p>Through the words of Ezio Rivella - the world-famous oenologist who developed the visionary project of the Italo-American brothers in Montalcino - pronounced during the suffrage celebration held in the Castello Banfi winery, the world of Italian and American wine said goodbye yesterday to one of its great protagonists and pioneers: Harry Mariani, who died in Huntington (New York) at the age of 78 on 5 January.<\/p>\n<p>Ezio Rivella was echoed by Remo Grassi, vice-president and managing director of the Montalcino winery, who remembered the pioneer as he attended the funeral yesterday at St. Patrick's Church in Huntington: \"With Harry goes a piece of wine history. It is thanks to an intuition of his and his alter ego, his brother John, that quality Italian wine crossed the borders first of the States and then of the world: they literally taught Americans to appreciate, drink and buy excellent wines. With the Mariani family, in fact, Brunello has had its consecration among quality wines in every corner of the globe. Harry leaves a great void for us at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.banfi.it\/eng\/banfi-castle\/\">Castello Banfi<\/a>\".<\/p>\n<p>Harry's death leaves, without a doubt, a huge void for all those who know, live and 'frequent' the world of wine, but, certainly, the memory of his life, his work and his intuition, will be a comfort and stimulus for all those who work in this sector.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"The moving farewell to Harry Mariani\" href=\"https:\/\/www.consorziobrunellodimontalcino.it\/news\/?p=9206\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.consorziobrunellodimontalcino.it\/news\/?p=9206<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cSiamo qui oggi, amici, dipendenti e conoscenti, a ricordare, nell\u2019occasione triste della sua scomparsa, Harry Mariani, uomo pacato ed elegante, dai modi gentili ed affabile che, insieme al fratello John, in tempi non sospetti, quando l\u2019Italia del vino di qualit\u00e0 era ancora chiusa in se stessa, \u00e8 riuscito a dare credibilit\u00e0 e spazio sui mercati [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":16015,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13169","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Il commosso addio ad Harry Mariani - Banfi<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Il commosso addio ad Harry Mariani, morto ad Huntington (New York) all\u2019et\u00e0 di 78 anni lo scorso 5 gennaio.
