Italian wine producer Cantina Goccia has developed what it claims is the “world’s first” purpose-built filling machine for paper bottles. The facility, which is based at its Umbria winery, will initially fill 1,000 paper bottles per hour, with the opportunity to double capacity in the future.
Since Cantina Goccia launched its own paper-packaged wine in June 2020, it has filled 114,000 paper bottles: 64,000 bottles of its own wines and 50,000 for third parties, including the likes of When in Rome, which debuted its own paper bottle wines in April 2022.
