The journey began in 1964 when Umberto Cesari first saw the untapped potential of Emilia-Romagna’s terroir and the region’s native grape varieties, and started out with 20 hectares in Castel San Pietro Terme His vision helped redefine local winemaking, proving to the world that this land could produce wines of extraordinary character – bottles that don’t just impress, but actually tell a story with every sip. Our founder’s fame as an ambassador of Sangiovese began in the 1980s. From day one, he focused on continuous research and attention to detail, and established the principles on which the company is based: Heritage, Innovation, Sustainability.
Umberto Cesari’s mission is guided by its founding values: respect for tradition, protecting the environment and the vines, the value of human experience and people supported by the latest technology and techniques, both in the vineyard and in the winery. Each year our passion for winemaking leads us to make new investments and to experiment. Our innovative spirit and vocation for research make for even higher quality standards.
