A visit to Cantina Matteo Rigoni is an experience for all the senses. There is natural beauty at every angle, and a peacefulness that is palpable.  once you come you'll want to return.  The house and current home of “Cantina Matteo Rigoni” was built in 1608 by Cleric Giovanni Porto, who was of a noble family from Vicenza, one who had many palaces and properties in Vicenza’s centre. It was immediately destined to host a congregation of Margheritoni monks who were inspired by the reformed teachings of the Venerable Antonio Pagani, a singular religious figure with a vocation for asceticism and hermitage as well as the foundation of minor orders. Matteo's family bought the property from the Porto family around the turn of the 19th century and has since then been the sole owner.   About 20 years ago Matteo took the steps toward realising a dream which would marry the passions and beliefs he holds true. He redesigned his grandfather's vineyard and added many more, and began to cultivate his organic grapes. The 3.5 hectars of vineyards are all visible from the house, up and along the hills that fall into a valley on Monte Caldiero. His art has been refining with the passing years, and now his natural wines ferment spontaneously in locally sourced, above-ground terracotta amphoras.  As art mimics life this project is an ever-growing homage to the vitality of the ground on which it lies. Matteo is always studying how things can be done in the best way, while keeping in mind his objective: to let the nature of the terroir come through, aging gracefully, until it is brought to the mouth of whomever has the pleasure to drink it.  See you soon!
