The business began with Pietro Clementi’s interest in viticulture. A lawyer from Verona, he purchased the property in Gnirega in 1969 and began making wine in a small home cellar. For years production was intended for family, friends and local events. In 2002 the winery was renovated to serve the national and international markets. Today management has passed to the second generation.
