TYPE - Dry wine
STYLE - White wine
REGION - Venetia, Italy
Chiampo in 1908, specifically in the Casa Defrà estate, around the modest Cielo family vineyard. Giovanni Cielo’s newly-established family activity immediately began to bear fruit and business started extend to neighbouring valleys as well. In the 1930s, the family-run activity continued to develop and expand as a result of the work of one of the sons, Pietro Cielo (2nd generation), the only family member to remain in Montorso. In 1962, the wine growing and production business expanded as a result of the efforts of three of the eight sons of the second-generation brothers, Giovanni, Renzo and Piergiorgio (3rd generation). Their enthusiasm led to the establishment of a new winery created on the company’s present premises and to the expansion of their national wine market. However, it was soon clear that the output of the small-scale winegrowing activity was not sufficient to satisfy market demands, so “Cielo” began to buy bulk wine, which they processed and bottled.
Measured by volume, Veneto is the largest Italian region for DOC wines. Prosecco and Amarone are the best-known wines from this region. Ten per cent of the wine produced in Italy comes from this region. The vineyards are mainly on the hill between Venice, Verona and Lake Garda. Because of its location between the lake, the sea and the Alps, the climate is predominantly soft.
