À propos du vignoble et des vins

In 1949, Giuliano Bortolomiol founded the Bortolomiol winery in Veneto in the territory of Valdob-biadene DOCG, where the highest quality certification of Prosecco is made. This zone encompasses fifteen townships in a steeply terraced, aesthetically beautiful territory, and the winery sits in the town of Valdobbiadene itself. Today, Bortolomiol is run by Giuliano’s four daughters, Maria Elena, Elvira, Luisa, and Giuliana. They honor their father with their flagship wine, Cuvée Del Fondatore. This Valdobbiadene DOCG Prosecco Superiore Brut is a single-vineyard millesimato made from vines grown in San Pietro di Barbozza; it is a cru wine that uniquely expresses the land and terroir. Bortolomiol’s family principles have remained unaltered since its founding: to produce high quality products and support the promotion of their territory. For the Bortolomiol women, this means greater territorial awareness and projects centered on sustainable agriculture. For example, an important piece of this area’s heritage was sericulture (silkworms) in the early 1900s. Bortolomiol keeps this part of the local culture alive with the restoration of the Parco della Filandetta, an old silkworm factory now owned by the family and located in Valdobbiadene’s his-torical center. Finally, Bortolomiol supports humanitarian projects. Several years ago, they were a partner in the Benin, Africa project called “Donne per le Donne,” which worked to integrate women in the entre-preneurial world. They are also active in Wine for Life, the most successful AIDS care program in sub-Saharan Africa.

The quality of Bortolomiol products goes to show the strength of this old alliance between winery and grape growers. It increases and grows through frequent visits to the vineyard, meetings-discussions, events, update workshops and technical assistance and the many get-togethers during which special awards are presented in a cheerful, pleasant setting every year. To further boost quality, this production area’s suitability has to be promoted by adopting the most appropriate vineyard management methods, and targeted technical assistance for growers. That is why a program of updated courses has been set up, and on-the-field technical assistance is provided together with support of growing and plant defence methods. Mr. Giovanni Pascarella and the oenologist, Gianfranco Zanon, guide and support the growers in this process.
