Mario Fantinel opened his first vineyard in 1969. His extensive passion and knowledge for viniculture helped in turn create one of Italy’s most globally recognizable brands, and one of its largest with over 300 hectares of vineyards spread over Italy. With their flagship estate, Fantinel, situated in Tauriano di Spilimbergo, the family have managed to produce a diverse portfolio of wine brands encapsulating everything from their Fantinel Prosecco Brut to their Cabernet Franc, sold through their boutique Roncaia brand.
