Le Ragose

Le Ragose, a now famous estate, is located North of Verona, in the town of Negrar (Veneto region), at the highest point of Valpolicella Classica (1,148 feet). The winery is composed of 32 hectares, 18 planted as vineyards. The altitude is from 250 to 400 meters high. Le Ragose was purchased in 1969 by an oenologist named Arnaldo Galli, and his wife Marta. Due to the high elevation, Marta recognized the need for a separate designation for the hills to distinguish them from the flat land of the valley. Marta fought for and obtained the designation Classico. She was one of the founders of the organization “Women in Wine” and helped found and start VinItaly.

Villa Sparina

Located in Monterotondo, the heart of Gavi, Villa Sparina was founded by Mario Moccagatta. After taking over in 1997, Mario’s children Stefano, Massimo and Tiziana, have managed to put Gavi back on the map by dramatically reducing yields, introducing French barrique, renovating the cellars and hiring oenologist Beppe Caviola. Their Monterotondo cru was the first Gavi di Gavi to ever win the prestigious Tre Bicchieri award from Gambero Rosso, and the first to break 90 points from Wine Spectator. Since then, Villa Sparina has not been resting on its laurels. For the Moccagatta family, Gavi is a way of life and a source of inspiration. They have created both a fascinating winery and an enchanting resort that reflect their passion for this territory. www.ethicawines.com

Borgogno

With the cellar founded in 1761, Giacomo Borgogno e Figli is among the oldest names associated with wine in the Langhe region. Though Cesare Borgogno changed the name of the estate in 1967 to Giacomo Borgogno e Figli, he continued to vinify wines from the family’s land holdings following their centuries-old traditions.The Borgogno family cared for the estate for 247 years until 2008 when they sold it to the Farinetti family, who promised to preserve and continue their legacy. Today, Giacomo Borgogno e Figli is run by budding oenologist Andrea Farinetti, flanked by Beppe Caviola. They are deeply committed to celebrating and improving this historic winery’s centuries-long record of crafting critically acclaimed Barolo.
