From this winery
  • Oenologist: Domenico Mazzotta, Lodovico Montresor
  • Bottles produced: 600.000
  • Hectares: 90
The Montresor family has been running Ottella for four generations. The company was started by Lodovico, father of Francesco and Michele, a wine entrepreneur and a passionate art collector. A long history: in the book La provincia di Verona e i suoi vini, 1900, the historian Giovan Battista Perez testifies that the Montresor family was the only one to produce Lugana in the province of Verona in 1905.

One day in 1964, Lodovico Montresor, together with Professor Michele Vescia of the University of Brescia and the engineer Turlini, had the idea to design and delimit this highly prestigious land called Lugana, giving it its own geographical conformation and identity. The result was the birth of the designation of origin three years later, in 1967. In the mid-1980s, the company gained new impetus when Francesco, newly graduated in law, joined his father. Francesco Montresor, President of the Consorzio di Tutela (Protection Consortium) from 2007 to 2013, was joined in 1993 by Michele, current President of the Associazione Vignaioli Veneti (Veneto Winemakers’ Association). In 2013, the project began for the new winery, a unique place, intended to represent the company’s values, its love for the vineyard, the landscape and art. Today, Ottella is a company with 90 hectares in Lugana. Lodovico and Lamberto work alongside their father and uncle in the company... from father to son: past, present and future. An Italian story, a beautiful one.
