The story
Originally conceived as a project of the Famiglia Pasqua in the early 1980s, Cecilia Beretta takes its name from the historic Villa Beretta in Mizzole. The label was created to showcase the traditional expressions of Valpolicella and Soave through targeted technical interventions and the input of oenologists such as Carlo Olivari and, in more recent years, Graziana Grassini.
Production philosophy
An approach that combines respect for the land with stylistic exploration: the revival of indigenous grape varieties, the enhancement of the local terroir, and the selective use of traditional techniques such as appassimento, alongside sustainability initiatives and the conversion of vineyards to organic farming.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located in the hilly amphitheatre of Valpolicella and in the hills of Soave. Soils are predominantly calcareous-clayey, with volcanic portions in the Soave area; average elevation 150–200 m.
Awards and recognition
Among the accolades: Tre Bicchieri awarded to Amarone Terre di Cariano 2018 Cecilia Beretta; the label also appears in various mentions and scores from guides and critics.
