Sansovino Vigneti e Cantine is a Cooperative Agriculture Society situated in the south–eastern area of the Veneto region, 50 km from Venice. Since 1950 it vinifies the grapes of its members, about 25 million kilos a year, using cutting edge techniques and tools. Wines come both from so–called international grape varieties: Merlot, Cabernets, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Pinot grigio, and from native of the Veneto region grape varieties: Prosecco, Marzemino, Refosco and Friularo. Friularo Ambasciatore, especially, is an excellent red wine obtained by late harvest, grapes drying in an appropriate place, slow fermentation and a long aging in oak barrels. The commercialization turns not only to the Italian and European market, but also to the ones of America and Asia.
The Corti Benedettine Denomination of Controlled Origin of the Padua area has obtained the recognition in June 2004.
As stated in its product specification, it extends in the south – east area of the province of Padua and in the southern part of the province of Venice , occupying the territory which for over 700 years, from the twelfth to the beginning of the nineteenth century, knew the presence and the work of the monks of the Santa Giustina Benedictine Abbey in Padua.
Corti Benedettine were the administrative, economic and social center of the extended properties that, under the guidance of the monks, provided to local development through land reclamation, embankments of rivers, construction of farm buildings and soil working. The cultivation of the vine, already known in Roman times, is widespread in the territory, and the wine produced in the large cellars of the Corti became one of the main products of trade with the cities of Padua and Venice: this latter will widely market it in all Mediterranean ports.
This centuries–old experience revives today in the vineyards and in the cellars of this part of the Veneto region where, next to the historical and indigenous grape varieties, Raboso, Refosco, Tocai, Moscato, they cultivate those so–called international varieties, who have found here excellent conditions of climate and soil: Merlot, Cabernet, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc.
They produce wines that can be consumed young and where the freshness accompanied by intense floral notes can be appreciated; others are suitable to the medium or long periods of aging, so as to enhance at the nose and the mouth greater aromatic complexity and an elegant structure, together with a good softness.
