ENOVITIS IN CAMPO IN EMILIA ROMAGNA

Founded in 2015 in Varignana - on the hills of Castel San Pietro Terme - to focus on the cultivation of olive trees and vines, and later orchards and saffron too, Palazzo di Varignana agricultural estate will be the prestigious venue for the 18th edition of Enovitis in campo on 12 and 13 June next year.

The project for the estate began in 2017 with the planting of the first vineyards that today cover 50 hectares. A new chapter in the history of this brand, which in just a few years has established itself in the food sector with its excellent products, including the now famous extra virgin oils: monovarietal and blends originating from over 150,000 olive trees. Born from Carlo Gherardi's desire to build a harmonious relationship between the territory, agriculture, hospitality and well-being, Palazzo di Varignana is now preparing to define its approach to the world of wine, with a number of experiences around the winery, designed to nourish the relationship between wine and the natural environment.

The Palazzo di Varignana wine project took its first steps in 2017, currently under the guidance of the winemaker Umberto Marchiori, and began with the planting of some historic vines of the territory, primarily Sangiovese. Pinot Noir has been added to the native varieties, to fulfil the desire to produce a classic blanc de noir sparkling wine.

The vineyards that will host the more than 150 exhibitors of Enovitis in campo and the approximately 7.000 visitors expected form a natural amphitheatre with a very original microclimate. This is due to the relationship between the moderate altitude and the orography of the territory: sandwiched between the badlands and the lush hills of olive groves. An ideal cradle for viticulture.

The flagship of the project is the creation of a new semi-underground cellar, set between the Amphitheatre of the vineyard and the various historic residences belonging to the Palazzo di Varignana resort. The cellar uses concrete tanks for the vinification of still wines, while stainless steel tanks were chosen for the processing of sparkling wine bases. The barrel cellar is maintained at a constant temperature of 14°C and French oak barrels are housed under its striking red brick vaults for the refinement of more structured reds.

Not only production and waiting for the wines to mature, but also a place for knowledge and sharing. The Winery of Palazzo di Varignana offers a series of opportunities to experience the relationship between landscape and taste, which come together on the terrace overlooking the vineyard, an exceptional setting to lose your gaze among the Emilian hills.

currently under the guidance of the winemaker Umberto Marchiori, and began with the planting of some historic vines of the territory, primarily Sangiovese. Pinot Noir has been added to the native varieties, to fulfil the desire to produce a classic blanc de noir sparkling wine.

The vineyards that will host the more than 150 exhibitors of Enovitis in campo and the approximately 7.000 visitors expected form a natural amphitheatre with a very original microclimate. This is due to the relationship between the moderate altitude and the orography of the territory: sandwiched between the badlands and the lush hills of olive groves. An ideal cradle for viticulture.

The flagship of the project is the creation of a new semi-underground cellar, set between the Amphitheatre of the vineyard and the various historic residences belonging to the Palazzo di Varignana resort. The cellar uses concrete tanks for the vinification of still wines, while stainless steel tanks were chosen for the processing of sparkling wine bases. The barrel cellar is maintained at a constant temperature of 14°C and French oak barrels are housed under its striking red brick vaults for the refinement of more structured reds.

Not only production and waiting for the wines to mature, but also a place for knowledge and sharing. The Winery of Palazzo di Varignana offers a series of opportunities to experience the relationship between landscape and taste, which come together on the terrace overlooking the vineyard, an exceptional setting to lose your gaze among the Emilian hills.

Palazzo di Varignana wine project took its first steps in 2017, currently under the guidance of the winemaker Umberto Marchiori, and began with the planting of some historic vines of the territory, primarily Sangiovese. Pinot Noir has been added to the native varieties, to fulfil the desire to produce a classic blanc de noir sparkling wine.

The vineyards that will host the more than 150 exhibitors of Enovitis in campo and the approximately 7.000 visitors expected form a natural amphitheatre with a very original microclimate. This is due to the relationship between the moderate altitude and the orography of the territory: sandwiched between the badlands and the lush hills of olive groves. An ideal cradle for viticulture.

The flagship of the project is the creation of a new semi-underground cellar, set between the Amphitheatre of the vineyard and the various historic residences belonging to the Palazzo di Varignana resort. The cellar uses concrete tanks for the vinification of still wines, while stainless steel tanks were chosen for the processing of sparkling wine bases. The barrel cellar is maintained at a constant temperature of 14°C and French oak barrels are housed under its striking red brick vaults for the refinement of more structured reds.

Not only production and waiting for the wines to mature, but also a place for knowledge and sharing. The Winery of Palazzo di Varignana offers a series of opportunities to experience the relationship between landscape and taste, which come together on the terrace overlooking the vineyard, an exceptional setting to lose your gaze among the Emilian hills.
