“Once the vineyard “de TARCZAL” was in the possession of an old-established family of Trentino, the family of the count ALBERTI which became known above all by one of her descending archbishop of Trento. In the family de TARCZAL the vineyard is for over 100 years. At that time the countess ALBERTI Gèza married an admiral of the Austro-Hungarian imperial army, named DELL’ADAMI de TARCZAL, and brought the vineyard with her into marriage. The admiral came from a wine-growing-propelling area, from Tarczal, a Hungarian village close to Tokai. The wines of this region were the most favoured wine of the Russian Tsarina Katharina. For centuries the valley Vallagarina in northern Italy is renowned for its fine quality and variety of distinguished grapes. The distinctive taste of its wine is now favoured by international connoisseurs. The quality of its Cabernet Franc, Marzemino and Schiava, all characteristic regional sorts of wine, results from two main factors, a gift of nature and human dedication. The soil, rich in basalt, and the ideal climate provide the perfect habitation for our fine grapes. Adding patience, carefulness and expertise of the viticulturist, wine becomes its quality, taste and uniqueness. Geographically, the vineyards are located at the […]

Domenico Poggiali bought the Fèlsina farm in 1966 and with a courageous act at that difficult time of Italian viticulture he chose to invest in the quality of the wine and the expertise of some young people. Viticulture enthusiasts and skilled entrepreneurs, Domenico and his son Giuseppe Poggiali modernized the management of the countryside without abandoning the spirit of tradition. In the space of a few years the vineyard acres became more than forty and they also changed the soul and the organization of the company. In the second half of the seventies, his son-in-law Giuseppe Mazzocolin joined the company, with the task of developing the company commercially. His humanistic culture and awareness of the responsibility of man in work contributed to growing the wine culture in Italy and abroad, obtaining the first international awards. The company offers various visit and tasting options, also with the possibility of combining the tasting of wines with a lunch based on products from their vegetable garden and game reserve.

Feudi di San Gregorio today epitomises the oenological renaissance of southern Italy, promoting a wine culture for the rediscovery of Mediterranean flavours. To promote southern Italy grape varieties, such as Aglianico, Fiano di Avellino and Greco di Tufo, to invest in the land and in the century old tradition of Irpinia wine making, means offering a future to a unique environmental heritage. Established in 1986 by two Irpinian families, Feudi di San Gregorio has its roots in the town of Sorbo Serpico in the province of Avellino. Since its early days, the winery focused on the preservation of authentic top quality productions and on the definition of a premium quality standard to meet the highest and most severe market requirements. The new winery was inaugurated in 2004, reflecting Feudi di San Gregorio’s wish to blend its long-standing tradition with a futuristic architectural project. Climbing up the hill towards Sorbo Serpico, you enter a magical world, with streams of water, herb gardens and blossoming rose bushes. The greatest surprise however is inside the winery, with the long barrel cellar where we store our red wines. Our aim is to be more than a simple winery and become a place where people […]

Mastroberardino family is living inside the socio-cultural wine world contest from two centuries, accordingly to the most reliable historical reconstructions. The first traces of its presence in Irpinia date back to the Bourbons land register, in the half of the Eighteenth century, when the family chose the town of Atripalda as its headquarter, where the ancient cellar is still located. There started an offspring that tied for ever the destiny of the future generations to the wine cult. Since then, ten generations led the family business, in always different circumstances, as it always happens in the stories of the most ancient family businesses. The family estates are all located in Irpinia, in the heart of the areas of production of the three DOCG: Greco di Tufo, Fiano di Avellino, Taurasi. They are distributed in several areas in order to save the identity, safeguard and development of the local varieties and vineyards.

Kellerei Kaltern-Caldaro came into being in 1992, or rather in 1906 and 1908. Today’s operation was formed by the 1992 merger of two long-established local cellars, the Bauernkellerei (Farmer’s Cellar) and the Jubiläumskellerei (Jubilee Cellar). More than a thousand growers are active with Kaltern, most farming less than one hectare, making cooperation the natural production strategy of choice. From 1363, Alto Adige belonged to the Habsburgs and during the reign of Emperor Franz Josef, Kaltern was an official supplier of the court in Vienna. In 1919, after the First World War, Alto Adige became part of Italy. The subsequent outbreak of the Second World War radically transformed the region and its network of commercial relationships. It was only in the Fifties that Kaltern wines reasserted themselves as high-profile products for export markets. The wine market underwent profound changes during the Eighties. Wine was no longer seen as a mere source of calories for back-breaking labour in the fields. It became a social phenomenon. Kaltern was one of the first wine areas in Italy to cater for consumer tastes and shift to a policy of extreme quality. That was when yields gradually began to fall from 200 quintals per hectare to […]

Castellare di Castellina, in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, covers a total of 80 hectares – including 20 occupied by olive groves. The vineyards occupy 33 hectares on the hillsides of a natural south-east facing amphitheatre, at an average height of 370 meters above sea level. The vines are aged between 7 and over 45 years, and yields per hectare are kept very low to obtain the maximum quality. Excellent exposure to the sun, good water drainage and a mixed soil containing limestone marl, galestro and little clay produce well-structured, intense wines, both red and white, suitable for long ageing in the bottle. A census of vines undertaken in 1979, together with the findings of the experimental vineyard and micro-vinifications that were carried out and compared, made it possible to re-graft both the Sangioveto and the Malvasia Nera varieties with the best scientifically-produced clones. These were the work of two assistants of Professor Scienza for whom Castellare had established two PhD research scholarships. Through this work, and with Professor Peynaud’s encouragement in developing Sangioveto, the Castellare vines now have the best clones for that particular terroir, since Sangiovese is the most sensitive of all vines not only to […]
