About Winery and Wines

Cantina Martinelli is a fusion of tradition and innovation, born in 2022 but with roots tracing back to 1783. The winery, located in Cortile near the Secchia River, spans 43 hectares of vineyards, growing native grapes such as Sorbara, Salamino, Pignoletto, Ancellotta, and Traminer. This location gives the wines a distinctive fresh and vibrant flavor. Driven by Umberto and Costantino's vision, the focus is on producing eco-sustainable wines that reflect the rich Modenese terroir. The young and dynamic team is committed to creating memorable wine experiences by blending modern techniques with local traditions.

The winery's fresh approach includes the production of high-quality wines that are true to the region's heritage while experimenting with grapes like Traminer, which offers a refreshing alternative to other international varieties.

Cantina Martinelli produces wines that highlight the natural expression of its grapes, drawing fresh minerality, structure, and complex flavors from the land. With both Champenoise and Charmat methods, the wines are crafted with minimal sulfites to preserve purity. The winery features six labels from native grapes: Romeo, Historia Noster, Canalvecchio, Ottocentodiciannove, 059, and 059 Frizzante. Two Traminer labels, 171 and 171 Dosaggio Zero, also stand out, along with a blend, 3x1, known for its fresh and complex profile. New experimental labels are expected in the future.
