Focus Producer: Ferrari
Ferrari was established by Giulio Ferrari in 1902 who dreamt of creating a sparkling wine in Trentino that would compete with the top Champagnes.
Giulio was the first to undertake substantial plantings of Chardonnay in Italy, and today Trentino is the largest vineyard area in Italy planted with Chardonnay grapes.
In 2017, they received Organic Certification for all company owned vineyards.
