A Heritage of Excellence
Terre dei Cavalieri
The agricultural heritage of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta
Five historic estates united under the aegis of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta: three devoted to fine winemaking — Rocca Bernarda in Friuli, Villa Giustiniani in Veneto and Castello di Magione in Umbria — alongside Sugarella and Mugnano for oil, meat, walnuts, honey and other specialties. One vocation: agriculture in the service of charity.

The Order
Agriculture at the heart of charity
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta — the ancient hospitaller order of the Knights of Saint John of Jerusalem — has for centuries organised its assets into commende: agricultural estates whose revenues support the work of assistance to those in need. Terre dei Cavalieri preserve this legacy today, uniting tradition and innovation.
