Visit to 50bio

Every jam is prepared in a strictly artisan way.

We do not process our fruits with industrialized processes and do not treat the soil with chemical products. The earth is fed exclusively with water and sun, which is why our fruit is authentic. We pick and choose fresh fruit and vegetables personally only when they are ripe, and we work them immediately, as soon as they are picked. While the fruit is on the fire, it releases an inviting aroma that pervades the rooms. This perfume will be the same that will come to your tables and intoxicate your sense of smell. During the cooking process, nothing is added that could alter the naturalness of the product. Because we want to guarantee a quality product. We like to create a process that is natural, from the beginning to the end, to which we add the love for tradition and for natural choices.

Visit to Az. Agr. Costalunga s.s.a.

Costalunga Farm and Winery was established

by Marco Costalunga in 1957, and was later enlarged and improved upon by his sons throughout the years. Today it is run by the third generation of the Costalunga family, as the fourth generation matures. The farm and its vineyards are located at the foot of the Berici Hills, on their eastern side, between Notulo Hill and Rose Hill. The place is a natural amphitheatre, characterized by dry and gentle slopes of calcareous land, ideal for the cultivation of wine producing grapes, as well as olive trees. Our high-quality grapes and wines, with their flavor, fragrance and taste, owe their excellence to the geographical and mineralogical peculiarities of the hills, as well as to their microclimate and proper sun exposure.

The geographical position of our property, and its hill system, allow spectacular hiking and walking tours through natural paths with breathtaking landscapes, while the vineyards offer educational opportunities for a variety of ages and subjects.

The grapes from our vineyards are processed into our unique wines, right here in our very own Costalunga Family cellars. The passion and skills that have continued for three generations, mixed with today's most modern technology, come together to preserve and magnify what nature generously offers on our hills. The excellent "Palladio Wines", and the Berici Hills DOC (Denomination of Controlled Origin) Wines are produced here, as well as new and creative products, representing the singularity of our vines and territory.

Costalunga is located in Villa Maffei Costalunga, a portion of an architectonic building complex with a courtyard that contains a tower dating back to the XV century. This ancient tower is the oldest element of the original structure. Additional buildings were then added to the tower starting in the XVI and XVII centuries, eventually creating the current building layout and design.

The original Villa entrance shows a porch characterized by ashlar pillars and a central arch supported by two Corinthian columns. Underground the courtyard area, ancient hydraulic engineering installations that were used to convey resurgent waters, still exist, well preserved and in perfect working condition.

Throughout the centuries, the Villa passed from the Maffei family (a now- extinct patrician family from Vicenza) to the Revese family from Vicenza, to the De Benedetti family from Padua, to the Oreffice family from Vicenza and since 1957 it has belonged to the Costalunga family.

Our staff is multi-lingual, speaking English, French and German.
Guided tours, educational tours, wine- and themed-tastings are available with a reservation.

Visit to Az. Agricola Borgo Schiavin

Borgo Schiavin

Our sparkling wine is the synthesis of everything!
With a sip, in a transparent goblet, its delicate perlage and straw-colored make a smile appear, which arises spontaneously in the instant in which its perfumes strike our senses.
The Longobard Red Griffin of the capsule and the overlapping circles of the black label celebrate the mystery, nobility and universality of our sparkling wine, inviting those who choose it to taste it with strong emotion.
To this new born initiative wanted to participate, to my great satisfaction, my beloved daughter Rossella, 26, a veterinary student in Padua and guitarist, also passionate about creation and art. Sharing the paternal project, it deals with the quality, image and marketing of Fato 1734.
We would like to thank the oenologist Dr. Ivan Panizza, our partner, who we have chosen for his renowned ability to synthesise the excellence of the grapes and the territory in sparkling wine. Awarded on many occasions and lastly at the Vinitaly 2015 in Verona with a great gold medal for Prosecco Spumante Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG Extra Dry and with the special prize as the best denomination of origin.

Visit to Azienda Agricola Vincenzo Cariello

Since 1926, after the ancestors returned from America, the Cariello Vincenzo farm is rooted in the northern Bari area of ​​Bitonto where the best oils are produced.

The company was born first with a small extension with a traditional oil mill attached. For logistical reasons this is abandoned in the 1950s, to the advantage of the sale and transformation of wine with a small percentage of oil. At the beginning of the 1990s the company began to expand and at the same time began to specialize in experimenting with wine and oil grapes. Our company has always kept its roots in the territory with a look to the future. The agricultural activity is carried out by preserving and protecting the pre-existing biodiversity in the area using the native varieties handed down by our ancestors.
