Garda’s sparkling Wine
THE CELLAR
Located in Monzambano in the heart of the moraine hills
del Garda, the ideal area for wine production, the Gozzi Winery is the story of a family that has been cultivating the land for generations and transforming its fruits with love and passion. It is the result of the constant search for the highest quality, obtained through the wise alliance between the knowledge handed down in almost a century of activity and the new scientific and technological discoveries, with the utmost respect for the environment and therefore for man.
The company was founded in 1920 by the brothers Cesare and Bortolo Gozzi, after years of agricultural work in a farm in the village under a sharecropping contract. Until 1985, the production of wine is flanked by cattle breeding, silkworm and cereal cultivation.
However, the great success of the wine produced pushes the brothers Cesare and Franco (grandchildren of the founders Cesare and Bortolo and current owners) to concentrate all efforts and investments in viticulture, with the installation of new vineyards and the creation of a winery all ‘vanguard. The commitment is directed to the production of DOC Garda and DOC Garda Colli Mantovani wines, a small DOC that combines the typicality of native vines such as Rondinella, Rossanella and Garganega, to the internationality of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay.
Thanks to a very precise and meticulous work, our wines are able to express all the strength and elegance that the terroir of the moraine hills of Garda conveys to them. The result is wines with a short aging in steel and “crus” with a long evolution in oak barrels: Saline, Magrini, Colombara and Le Falme are the names of small vineyards where the particular relationship between grape variety, climate and soil enhances the flavors, the perfumes and colors that this land can give. To highlight the sparkling wines: two extra dry wines – of which a rosé – and a brut classic method from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which with a careful selection of the grapes and a permanence on the lees for at least 5 years, acquires organoleptic characteristics of great value. Today, after almost a hundred years, we keep our goal as always: to enhance the environment of the morainic hills of Garda and its millennial relationship with man.
