The Cecilia Beretta family business

Cecilia Beretta is a small, family-run wine estate near Verona in the Veneto wine region of northeastern Italy. Founded in the 1980s as a viticultural research center by the prominent local winemaking family Pasqua, Cecilia Beretta is still owned and run by Pasqua, but operates as a completely separate company. Named after local nobleman Giuseppe Beretta, who built the estate's magnificent villa in the 17th century, the estate comprises 89 hectares of prime limestone-rich vineyards in the rolling hills of Valpolicella and Soave. The grapes are harvested entirely by hand and dried in open wooden crates to achieve a higher sugar concentration. After drying, the grapes are gently pressed, and fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks. The wine is aged in oak barriques for approximately six months. The wine is then blended and bottled for a few months before release.
