Villa Sandi
Roots nourish the future. It is so for the vineyard and the company's history. The seed was planted in the early 1920s, when Mario Polegato, grandfather of the current president Giancarlo, bought some vineyards and entered the wine market. The passion grows, and the company's roots become more robust, but just like the vineyard, one has to wait several years before getting the first fruits.
After the Second World War, the roots of history dig deeper and deeper, and satisfaction ripens. Divo cultivates his father Mario's business together with his wife Amalia Moretti. As a result, the company and family continue to grow.
Also in the 1980s, after a trip to the Champagne region, Mario and Giancarlo decided to use the underground tunnels discovered during the renovation of Villa Sandi to house the first bottles produced using the classic method. Success was immediate: Opere immediately became one of the most appreciated brands of the classic method made in Italy.
Since the early 2000s, the vineyard platform in the Prosecco DOC and DOCG lands has been growing, and several native grape varieties are being rediscovered. In 2010 came the first great recognition: the Cartizze La Rivetta won the Tre Bicchieri (Three Glasses) by Gambero Rosso, an award then won for twelve consecutive years. Again, values and skills are handed down, continuing to give life to the history of Villa Sandi. Diva and Leonardo, Giancarlo and Augusta's children, join the company, renewing the tradition of a family cultivating the terroir's future for four generations.
