About Us
Montillo Italian Foods is a family-owned and operated business. Husband and wife
team Gregorio (Greg) and Deena Montillo are pleased to bring you Vino Cotto, a naturally sweet, cooked grape must syrup.
Each fall when the Montillo family makes their wine, they also make vino cotto
for their personal use. They've been doing so for at least four
generations in a small, historic mountaintop town called Montepaone in
Calabria, Italy. Since 1970, Greg's immediate family carries on these traditions in Massachusetts.
Greg and Deena are very proud to share with you a piece of their Italian
heritage, Vino Cotto. An authentic condiment and ingredient that families throughout the Mediterranean
have enjoyed for centuries.
It’s your turn to try the newest “secret” ingredient from the past,
Vino Cotto. Your taste buds will be so glad you did!
