  • Start up year: 2005
  • Oenologist: Gianmaria Ciman, Filippo Cengiarotti
  • Bottles produced: 70.000
  • Hectares: 10
But let us begin with Gaetano Rubinelli, the founder of a family which has lived in Valpolicella for generations. After having projected and built the Chievo Dam along the River Adige, thus supplying electricity to all the Veronese Industries at the beginning of the century, Gaetano Rubinelli bought this lovely country place, fascinated by its perfect setting, and location in the heart of Valpolicella.

During the years the Rubinelli family decide to begin their own production of wine, and thus their dream of expressing the delicacy and excellence of the product of their land, came true! High quality grapes, thanks to growth and maturation in an ideal setting: the soil... the sun..., and the gentle climate and soft breeze of Conca del Vajol.
