Origins and Family History…Passion for the Land
The history of our family is embedded with the passion for the land and its fruits.
A farming tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation, at the foot of the Garda Lake, through the work and dedication of those who gave their own contribution to “Made in Italy”.
The wines we produce, each with its own character and soul, are the stories of those people, whose commitment and originality in the vineyard and winery, make each bottle a unique experience.
1400
Ferrara di Monte Baldo, Verona
Our family tree begins in this small mountain town, the family has since then been devoted to agriculture. Our Catholic tradition has always led us to interpret wine as the fruit of the vine and the work of man.
1970
Castelletto di Leno, Brescia
Our home, the meeting of our parents and the beginning of our family history.
Love for the land and for life in our grandparent’s farmhouse: that Castel Guelfo which has become our most prestigious wine, our Founder’s Reserve or “Riserva dei Fondatori”.
2006
Lonato del Garda, Brescia
After a few harvests, we decide to produce our own wine: the “Perla” is born, our first Lugana Doc and our cellar, built among the vineyards to allow gravity flow vinification.
