The best wineries in Forlì e Cesena.
Villa Venti is an organic wine company at the center of a land of ancient vocation.
At the end of the fifteenth century, the Venetians dominated the neighboring lands and maintained ties with Roncofreddo and its territories. The ships of the Serenissima left from Cesenatico with loads of olive oil and red wine, ofwhich, in the lagoon, "there was a great commerce".
The sea gave up with its trade routes Villa Venti and its vineyards, but did not forget to bring with breezes, smells of salt and pungent scents of iodine.
In this context, you will be greeted with attention to quality of life.
Founded in 1988, the Pertinello estate extends for 35 hectares on a hillside overlooking the valley of Alto Bidente.
The vines grow at an altitude of 300 meters, over a stony area, rich in limestone and clay, are always exposed to full sun, constantly ventilated and characterized by high thermal excursion.
The Drei Don Estate is situated on the ancient Romagna hills among the towns of Forlì, Castrocaro and Predappio and in strategic position at the mouth of the valleys of the rivers Rabbi and Montone, around one of the guard towers that Caterina Sforza in 1481 built in defense of her territories.
The estate has been belonging to the Drei Don counts since the beginning of the century, and has always been dedicated to the production of Sangiovese grapes.
With the advent of the current owner Claudio Drei Don, who abandoned his forensic activity to devote himself full time to the company, and later of his son
Enrico, radical changes which give a decisive turn to the approximately 27 hectares of the property began.
There are 23 hectares of vines, most of which are obviously dedicated to Sangiovese di Romagna, whose old plants were the subject of a special study and selection which then led to their restoration through the replanting of the mass selection of Palazza.
From these you will get the "Pruno" selection reserve, the real wine of the company, and the resulting second wine Sangiovese "Notturno". In addition to this, two small vineyards also produce Chardonnay and Riesling "Il Torinese" and the Cabernet Sauvignon "Magnificat", and from a very small plot of vineyard of only 0.85 hectares with three different grapes they make, not in all vintages, "Graf Noir" Great Reserve.
The philosophy of the company is of the utmost rigor: the wines produced here are the result of a severe work in the vineyard, before, and in the winery, then, the purest expression of our terroir of Massa di Vecchiazzano in the hills of central Romagna.
In the estate, also two aged grappa and an extra virgin olive oil are produced.
A special mention is deserved by the names of the wines: all were baptized with the names of the horses of the small family’s stable.
Tenuta Valli was founded in 1960 by the union of the "La Tenuta" farming estate, with the historic "Valli Vini" brand, which since 1859 has been distinguishing itself for the production of quality wines.
The crops follow the practices of organic farming, in respect of local products and of biodiversity: wheat, alfalfa, pasture for the breedingo of Romagna breed cattle and thirty hectares of specialized vineyards.
Santa Lucia estate was founded in the early '60s when my father's land was added to my paternal grandfather's one, thus forming a farm of about 100 ha of which 12 are vineyards. They are located at 250 m. above sea level at Mercato Saraceno in the Savio valley, right in the heart of Romagna. At that time a farm ought to be self-sufficient and produce everything, from cheese to fruit, to wine...
Towards the end of the '90s there was a turning point: the farm specialized in winegrowing; a revolution which started from the vineyards to continue in the cellar. Thanks to the advice of important Italian winemakers we were able to carry out a plan aiming at upgrading the production and exploiting the culture, the history and the traditions of our belt.
Massimo Rocchi cultivates his vines in one of the areas with the highest potential of the territory of Bertinoro; the wines are of high quality and level, of extreme elegance.
The wish to hand down a father's love for the countryside and agriculture to following generations led to the establishment of Azienda Agricola Biologica Galassi Maria. Thirty-six hectares, of which sixteen are vines located in Paderno, in a valley amongst the hills of Cesena. A handkerchief of lands, worked and colourful, give our wines their exquisitely aromatic notes.
We have cultivated our lands with vines and fruit trees in full compliance with organic farming techniques, respecting the ecosystem and its ability to grow naturally with just a very little additional help.
Azienda Agricola Biologica Galassi Maria produces two quality wines from its selected, handpicked Sangiovese grapes: a Sangiovese Riserva, in large barrels, and a vinified white, blended with Chardonnay and Rebola.
The estate now has sixty hectares of vineyard, managed by Maurizio Costa, under the guidance of Francesco Bordini.
The wines that are produced here, once poured in a glass, give the drinker a felling for the magic of area and express the sun, the land and the care of the farmer.

In 2003, Renzo Maria Morresi and his wife bought the Casetta dei Frati company, devoting themselves entirely to the work in the vineyard and in the winery. The vineyards are located in an area that is perfect for their cultivation, in that part of Romagna that crosses the border with Tuscany.
The cellar has 2 production units, one dedicated to the vinification and reception, the other to wine ageing. The vinification unit was made in 2005. It is located at 1.5 km distance from the historic center of Cesena, immersed in the green of Gessi Valley.
