Graziano Merotto

Graziano Merotto’s journey begins here, in Col San Martino, a rural village nestled amidst meadows and slopes, still far from the glitz it would eventually attain as the epicenter of future sparkling wine production. Hailing from a family of vintners dedicated to winemaking, Graziano grew up with a vision that might be deemed visionary today, but back then was considered bold: to elevate Prosecco, infusing it with dignity through a pioneering quest rooted in natural fermentation techniques.

The hands shape every space, they are root and will. In repeating ancient gestures, they hold secrets otherwise forgotten, and present them anew in a contemporary style and personality. "Because hands tell stories, like glances and silences. In hands, as in the trunks of trees, one reads the lines and curves of an existence. The sweetness, the toil, the sufferings, the furrows of the things we have come into contact with, that have characterized us, insinuating themselves between the folds and beyond." (excerpt from the book: "I Remember It as a Happy Day")
