The company was founded at the end of the 1800s by a family that has been dedicated to wine and olive oil production for generations. The founder, Felice Russo, emigrated to America in 1910, where he lived for about 20 years. After his return, he expanded the company and integrated it with innovative methods of his era. Today, Russo & Longo is represented by the fourth generation. They distinguish themselves by their consistency in realizing a project with joint effort and represent the great driving force for the company's future. The Azienda is excellently nestled between the sea and the hills of present-day Strongoli.
