Über das Weingut und die Weine
Cantina Monte Zovo was founded in Caprino Veronese, a few steps from Lake Garda and at the foot of Monte Zovo. Since the beginning, the Cottini family has run the company with passion and dedication, carrying out a daily commitment and objective: to preserve biodiversity and enhance the identity of the territory. The protection of biodiversity is a fundamental value for this family. Monte Zovo was the first winery in the world to obtain, in 2013, the Biodiversity Friend certification, a standard that certifies high levels of biodiversity conservation in agriculture. The winery, renovated in 1995, is still an example of ecological practices applied to winemaking, as well as being an ideal place to welcome visitors and enthusiasts for experiences dedicated to wine, the land and wine culture. For its commitment to environmental protection and its activities to promote biodiversity, the winery was awarded a prize in the Best of Wine Tourism 2020 International Competition, in the category 'Sustainable Policies in Wine Tourism 2020'.
Monte Zovo owns 140 hectares of vineyards, distributed in the three main denominations of the province of Verona: Valpolicella, Garda and Lugana. Diego Cottini has selected vineyards that are unique for their position and expression of the territory. Most of them are located above 550 metres in altitude and up to 950 metres. Monte Zovo wines reflect full respect for the local family tradition, which has deep roots dating back to 1925, constant research and a sense of innovation.
