The best Italian wineries.
In 1956 the company’s founder, Antonio Doro, arrived in these lands, among the most evocative of the town of Vittorio Veneto.
Our vineyards, located among the hills of Carpesica, are located inside the Conegliano–Valdobbiadene DOCG denomination, which is known worldwide for being the encounter between a strong and generous nature and its industrious and kind people.
Our tradition of vine–growers, which starts from the end of the nineteenth century, was handed down from father to son, to Silvano and Massimo Doro, who dedicated to their grandfather Toni, as he was known by everyone, their own company. This is the sign of a strong relationship with our land, that we have not received as inheritance by our ancestors but that we have borrowed from our children. A philosophy that leads us to an ever more environmentally friendly approach with full respect for the land that
hosts us.
Our passion turns first into work and then into Prosecco.
In the heart of the production area of Prosecco with Denomination of Controlled and Guaranteed Origin, located between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, Col San Martino arises.
In this small town, located along the White Wine Route, the Borgo Bragarin winery is located, which for four generations has been
cultivating its vineyards obtaining grapes of quality and value.
Since the early years of the twentieth century, the Merotto family has been cultivating Prosecco with passion, the same passion transmitted to Albano
who cultivates it today.
By combining vinegrowing experience to modern winemaking techniques, this noble fruit is transformed into fine and elegant wines.
The Scriani farm in Fumane is a little gem in the heart of Valpolicella, a fertile land of flavors and traditions, outlined by the rows of its renowned vineyards and grounded in the undulating landscape of rolling hills.
The Cottini family have been farmers for generations, founding their own work on the values of the peasant culture. Their passion for the land and the deep awareness of their roots have given them for years the most authentic sense of the life of each member.
Vineyards and grapes
Mandolari, Bosco, Carpan, Tondin, La Costa are grounds that include vines of an age between nine and forty years, cultivated with arbor method, single or double, for a total density of three thousand plants per hectare. Ronchiel is the latest, it has a density of four thousand and five hundred vines per hectare.
The vineyards are located in a way which takes into account not only the characteristics of the soil, but also the configuration of the surrounding forests.
The flagship of the Scriani production, Amarone, is aged eighteen months in barriques, and subsequently eight months in oak barrels and aged in bottles for another six months.
A prestigious selection that combines body, scents and tastes, from mild to intense, with unique hints given by the variety of grapes used: Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara and others. Awards and recognitions obtained in prestigious events are the most tangible evidence that the Scriani company works with commitment and seriousness and is one of the most influential names in the Italian wine scenery.
Located in the beautiful setting of the Euganean Hills, at the foot of Monte della Madonna, the Colle Mattara winery stems from a tradition handed down from father to son guarding jealously the care and the passion for the cultivation of vines, without forgetting the respect for nature.
The exposure of the vineyards is excellent: they extend on all the slope of the hill, catching the heat and light of the sun all day with excellent results on the final quality of the grapes. The new plants and the modern methods of training are all aimed to increase quality. No less important is the influence of the climate and the vocation of the land to the cultivation of vines.
The processing of the grapes uses modern winemaking technologies, following in this way the concept of genuineness in order to respect what nature has placed at our disposal.
The results of an ongoing research to improve the quality of our products, of a work in harmony and in accordance with nature, in the union of experience, tradition and modern technology, can be found in our wines that we propose today in 11 different types.
The Tenuta La Meridiana farm is located a few kilometers south of Asti, in the hills of Monferrato, an area particularly suited for the production of Barbera and the cradle of Piedmontese viticulture. Care and attention are first put into the processing of the vineyards, grown almost entirely with Guyot, according to the ancient Piedmontese tradition, in which, thanks to skilful manual work and thinning techniques, we obtain high quality grapes, further selected in the phase of harvest. The same care is then placed in the other stages of the production process, concerning winemaking, aging and bottling, with the belief that all this is reflected in the finished product. Our wines are the product of the commitment and strength of the territory; respecting what nature gives us and the values we believe in.
Nature, Technology, Excellence. Historical passion and continuous innovation meet in the Le Bertole® cellar, giving life to the spell of the transformation of the grapes of these lands into sparkling wines of excellence. From grapes to vinification, from sparkling wine to marketing, the passion does not change, each bottle produced by the family company is the result of careful processing, where technological innovation allows you to find the right combination of history of the territory, tradition and modernity.
I remember it was a warm spring morning in 1993. During a walk through the vineyards that my family had cultivated for generations on this magnificent hill, I Loris and Paolo made the decision to found Col Vetoraz Spumanti. Right from the start we defined what our mission had to be: to honor this generous and unique territory in the world we had to create only wines of the highest quality. Our intent was ambitious: to become the reference of this territory ".
The Montechiari property is located right at the top of a hill in the center of the well-known area of Montecarlo. All around are the vineyards, on the slopes, best exposed, and the olive trees, for a total of twenty-three hectares. The ten hectares of vineyards are divided into small parcels, to make the most of the lighting and soil characteristics. Very characteristic alluvial soils, which represent a particularity of our hill and which bind our wines as a common thread, with a very recognizable terroir imprint. French vines have always been traditional in the Montecarlo vineyards and we wanted to reproduce them, in the tradition but with the intention of producing innovative wines. This is how chardonnay, semillon, pinot nero, carbernet franc and merlot. flanked by the sangiovese grosso, in specialized vineyards that we cultivate aiming for the highest quality of the grapes, without compromise.
Tradition, passion and dedication combined with a land like Monferrato can just give rise to a high quality product. And it is exactly the constant pursuit of quality that enabled the Casalone company to go through more than a hundred years of history while remaining faithful to the inspirating principle according to which producing wine is not only a craft but an art to be handed down.
Monferrato is a corner of Piedmont in which the encounter between man and nature has given rise to a perfect fellowship. That is why vineyards, priceless heritage of this territory, can only be found where they have given historically the best results, in the areas where the high quality of grapes is a natural response of the earth and not the result of a human forcing.
OUR STORY
The story of this plot of land began around the 20s, when Albano Durante and his wife Ida purchased and managed a dozen hectares. Later, between the two world wars, these plots were sold and passed from hand to hand, slowly were bought by the owners who purchased the adjacent lands up to the current surface of about 50 hectares around the 80s.
In 1990 Tenuta Bosco Albano was purchased again by the Durante family that believed in the potentialities of this land and performed a thorough company renovation transforming a business reality of mainly arable land into one with a totally winegrowing vocation.
Today there are about 45 hectares of vineyards, mainly with white grape variety, surrounded by hedges, ditches and woods.
The low plains surrounded by rivers in which the estate is located, were once forests of beech, poplar and oak trees that offered excellent wood that was used in the construction of Venice and later by the Serenissima Republic to achieve its impressive naval fleet.
The soils, rich in marl and clays, have been used since the early twentieth century and up to 1980, in order to extract the raw material for the Rivarotta furnace, still visible today and an example of industrial archeology.
TERRITORY
Equidistant from the foothills of the Alps and the Adriatic Sea, about 45 km far, Tenuta Bosco Albano enjoys a favorable microclimate, thanks to the presence of an underground aquifer, the exposure to sunlight and the gentle slopes, which offer a constant well–being of the vineyards, resulting in a collection of selected and quality grapes; the mostly clayey soil helps to obtain rich and of excellent quality grapes.
PHILOSOPHY
Only our own grapes are processed, in a completely independent production, we chose to obtain a contained yield per hectare, through, if necessary, a decisive reduction of the amount of clusters with short pruning and the practice of manual thinning.
VARIETIES LINE
Our line of varietal wines wants to bring the work of the vineyard in every bottle.
In the process of transformation, making wine exclusively from our grapes, we enhance their quality leaving to the winery the delicate task of being the cradle in which wines develop and mature.
The goal is to bring out the best varietal characteristics typical of the grapes and to produce pleasant to drink wines.
In this line we only produce mono–varietal wines provided by the DOC Grave Friuli, we chose to produce four white and four red wines because we believe that these are the varieties that best express themselves in the area.
RESERVES LINE
Selected grapes, long fermentation and aging in barrels, blends and, then, aging in bottles.
Our reserves are produced in limited quantities and only in the best vintages, the barrel cellar and the aging cellar are underground and allow a refinement in constant temperature and humidity during all months of the year.
A classic method from Pinot Nero and Chardonnay grapes, a Red Wine from a classic Bordeaux blend that celebrates Albano, the founder of the estate, a White Wine obtained from Sauvignon grapes from old vines and a raisin wine from Picolit and Verduzzo grapes: these are our most valuable gems.
MARTINOTTI LINE
Our Martinotti method sparkling wines represent our desire to toast to celebrate joyful moments.
Our fresh and fruity Prosecco Doc is the King of the appetizers and we try to reach with it the utmost pleasure and easiness to drink.
Ida 1903 celebrates the wife of Albano, a long Martinotti method from Chardonnay and Pinot Nero grapes, that rests in an autoclave for at least four months and gives it complexity and elegance while maintaining a great freshness.
BOSCAIA LINE
The Boscaia line was created with the goal of producing a white and a red wine easy to drink that represent the Friuli Venezia Giulia region, then the territory of the company itself.
Both products are obtained from the union of three different varietal wines in different proportions that vary depending on the vintage.
Why Boscaia? The Boscaia term was used in the past to identify a specific area inside the company where in the past there where, precisely, Woods (Boschi).
Selvole is immersed in the Chianti Classico hills, 15 minutes from Siena. It is surrounded by woods, vineyards and olive groves, and can only be reached by going through some unpaved historic roads typical of Chianti. These roads are protected by the region because the Eroica passes there, the annual vintage bicycle race event that takes place in the autumn. According to the organizers, "since 1997 L'Eroica has been an example of enhancing the environmental heritage, sustainable lifestyle, and clean cycling." The sweet landscapes and the luxuriant nature satisfy the eye and regenerate the spirit, offering a bucolic peace away from the city tension.
In 1962 the young man Tarcisio Bernardi, feeling tight in his role as member of the cooperative winery, decided to vinify on his own the grapes produced by him and to sell the wine, with the experience of at least three generations of winemakers.
At the time, the mechanization of agriculture was just at the beginning, the rugged hills of Pedeguarda – Follina – required hard work and the soil was sometimes stingy. These difficulties brought the Bernardi family, in 1972, to move to Ogliano, on the hills of Conegliano.
Now the company has an area of about 16 hectares of which 13 are planted with vineyards, grouped together in one body surrounding the company estate, an impressive network of rows on green hills exposed to the sun. Time has passed, new generations have begun to work besides the old ones, the traditional methods of working have combined with new technologies that help to improve the wines’ quality, making them responsive to market demands, but the attachment to the territory, love for nature and the genuineness of its products have remained intact.
All this, Bernardi Ogliano tries to transmit to customers, new and old, who appreciate its wines and the family atmosphere that reigns within the company. Bernardi in Conegliano Veneto: a sip of the hill ...
The history and consequently the approach with wine of the Pittaro family began in 1510.
The following generations have continued to pursue the passion and the goal of producing a wine of high quality.
Angelo Pittaro is the founder of Cantina San Martino. Romano, his father, was among the first ones to introduce in Italy the major grape varieties from across the Alps with clones of Merlot, Cabernet and Chardonnay, tracing the line that starts from the cultivation of the raw material, to achieve, then, production and sale.
The heart of all this is today a building called Il Castello which, in the center of the company, where not only the Pitars wine is presented, but that has become a place of socialization hosting events, exhibitions and thematic meetings on wine. The architecture is very classy, with large rooms that can be used for many purposes regarding the promotion and the culture of wine.
It was built with all the criteria of green building using natural, recyclable and environmentally sustainable materials. Saving energy is at the basis of this philosophy that reflects a remarkable respect of nature.
The vineyards are located in the surroundings of San Martino al Tagliamento, where the arid, rocky soil, creates an optimal condition for the wine that made famous its Grave del Friuli designation. The main goal is that of making enhance the personality of the various varieties.
There are 140 hectares of vineyard with 16 vines that are vinified in single–variety that can produce along with other wines Pinot Grigio 100% P.G., which enhances the personality of the grape variety.
Much attention is devoted to local wines from Friuli which have a now well established story.
Alongside the company there is the winery that has the same criterion of environmental sustainability by using eco–friendly materials and structures that are able to maintain the natural properties of the wine since its creation. The place is technologically advanced with a capacity of more than twenty thousand hectoliters.
The selection of wines produced are Sauvignon, Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Cabernet, Merlot and Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso. We can add sparkling wines with Pinot Brut and Extra Dry Prosecco. We must not forget Prosecco Frizzante, Ramandolo, Friulano, Pinot Bianco, Verduzzo, Gewürztraminer and Cabernet Franc.
Another feature of Pitars is that to have a modern profile while maintaining the traditions, in addition to carefully search for its wines in a precise matching with food.
During the 2012 edition of Vinitaly the new labels of sparkling wines Pitars signed by Boscolo Design Parners were presented, which have an established experience on the implementation of the Labelling and Packaging of wine.
It is one of the oldest companies in the area of Montefalco. The name Scacciadiavoli comes from the name of an ancient village, which lies in close proximity of the company, where an exorcist (Scacciadiavoli) lived.
The winery was built in the second half of the nineteenth century and has been restored recently, rational and equipped with modern facilities. In the middle of the twentieth century, the grandfather of the current owners, Amilcare Zuccari, acquired the property.
The size of the company is of 130 hectares of surface, 35 out of which are invested in vine–growing, and the current production is of about 200,000 bottles, that will rise to about 250,000 when all the vineyards are in production.
The wines are typical of the area: Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG, dry and raisin versions, Montefalco Rosso DOC and Grechetto dell&rsquo,Umbria I.G.T. .
The conversion and development of the wine–growing area, now complete, includes the construction of the vineyards with at least 5,000 plants per hectare, targeted at achieving the best quality standards in the production of Montefalco Sagrantino, Montefalco Rosso and Grechetto dell’Umbria.
For some time, Spumante Brut Metodo Classico from Sagrantino grapes has been produced, too.
The Pambuffetti brothers are confident that the potential of the soil and the microclimate of the Scacciadiavoli company is enable to reach, thanks to the collaboration of experienced agronomists and winemakers, the pursuited results.
Thruster of that belief is the motto “Sola Fides” (great confidence) imprinted on the emblem that is on the front of the winery and on labels.
Di Bello company has been devotes itself to agriculture for over a century with passion and dedication in respect of the environment and good agronomic practices. From the beginning of the century, the lands around the family house were planted with vines and the full harvest was totally transformed and stored in the cellar of property as primary means of support for the work in the fields. Over the years, these possessions have increased with the purchase of new land suitable to the planting of vineyards for productions of quality. Hence the belief that when tradition and local culture are combined with the desire to provide excellent results you can create a real point of strength and a fundamental resource for the area. The medium–textured soils, slightly stony and distinctly hilly located in the countryside of Montenero and Guglionesi ensure own crops: olive, vegetables, crops, unique aromas and flavors. The company is run directly by the owner with the help of his family members who care for: production, processing, sale, with dedication and commitment, through the intermittent help of labor force only during periods of increased demand for labor.
