Factories manufacturers

In 1969, as a result of the merger of three large German cooperatives, the well-known wine making company Moselland formed. For more than a quarter of the century, the company has been known for its high-quality German dry and semi-sweet wines.
Having set out a goal to achieve the maximum level of satisfaction of the customer with their products, Moselland has been maintaining an impeccable reputation for a long time both at the German market and the export market.

Equipped with modern technologies, the production of the company complies with the most demanding standards. Commitment to quality of the products has allowed the production to earn countless awards and diplomas. “Life is too short to drink bad wine” – the main motto of the company. Moselland is in harmony with nature, resulting in wines of excellent quality and a great taste, typical just for this area.

In 1872 Josep Raventós Fatjó made the first bottle-fermented wine in Spain.
Manuel Raventós Doménech creates in 1888 the blend Xarel·lo, Macabeo and Parellada.
Josep Mª Raventós i Blanc, founded the CAVA D.O. in 1986 and Raventos i Blanc.

In 2012 we decided to leave the DO Cava, to pursue the dream of a quality Appellation of Origin for our area Conca del Riu Anoia. Origin Conca del riu Anoia, geographically delimited. Estate produced. Native grape varieties. Biodynamic & Organic viticulture.  Minimum 18 months of aging.  Always vintage.

CONCA DEL RIU ANOIA: 2.654 ha of vineyard 9.736 ha of region surface.

The region was under the Mediterranean 16-20 M years ago Limestone soils with marine fossils. The Anoia River has been eroding its course for millions of years.

Aged for a minimum of 18 months The combination of calcareous soils, traditional varieties and the Mediterranean climate are the key factors for obtaining fresh wines with good acidity and great aging potential.

The Raventós farm is an agricultural organism that encompasses the entire cycle of 50 ha of vineyards, 10 ha of cereals, a small field of olive, almond and fig trees. In addition to two forests, a lake and the Serral hill.

Integrated farm where animal, plant and man work together for the production of sparkling wines.

Bio Synergies: Land, vines, animals and man work together as an agricultural whole. Sustainability. Our farm has become a haven for biodiversity where the forests, lake and river teem with life and make it an extraordinary place.

Polycultures: On the farm we have different polycultures such as olive trees, roses, almond trees and different cereals; all of them help us to maintain the soil with better quality and structure, besides promoting a rich ecosystem. The polycultures that we have allow us to leave the plots at rest for a couple of years to strengthen the life of the soil; in them we have planted mustard, oats or other cereals. Being a self-sufficient farm, with the fruit of the polycultures we obtain food for our own and the farm's consumption.

Raventós i Blanc is a FARM, 100% Biodynamic Viticultur. We make our own biodynamic preparations. We work with manure from our animals, and we sow the covers to structure the soil, 7ha with the help of two horses. In winter our herd of goats and sheep graze on the farm to avoid mowing. Pioneers in animal traction.

The Ruggeri winery was established in 1950 by Giustino Bisol, whose family boasts a deeply rooted, centuries-old tradition in viticulture in the Valdobbiadene area. The place-name “Case Bisoi” (that is “the Houses of the Bisols”) is to be found on the oldest maps of the area, in the heart of the zone now known as Cartizze and once called “Chartice” or “Gardizze”. It is here, according to property/tax assessment documents in the public archives, that the Bisol family has been cultivating vines since many centuries. In the 1800s.

Eliseo Bisol left further documentary evidence of his activity as a distiller. Around 1920, his son Luigi Bisol, an oenologist, built a winery in Montebelluna. In 1950, Luigi’s son Giustino Bisol established the Ruggeri winery in Santo Stefano di Valdobbiadene to produce and promote the sparkling Prosecco Superiore and Cartizze wines. In 1993 the winery was relocated to new, large and ergonomically-designed premises.

The Prosecco Superiore DOCG grapes are usually delivered by over a hundred vine-growers. Nearly all of them have their vineyards in the municipality of Valdobbiadene, while 25 also grow Cartizze grapes. It should be noted that many of the superior vineyards lie in the historic districts of S.Pietro di Barbozza. Santo Stefano and Saccol, which have always been renowned for producing the best in terms of quality. Ruggeri owns two small vineyards of Cartizze and 20 hectares on the nearby Montello, 12 of them are cultivated with Pinot Grigio, Pinot Nero, Chardonnay and Glera.

The Ruggeri winery is well equipped to cope with the considerable harvest; it has two fully independent lines for receiving the grapes and 5 ‘soft’ presses, thereby ensuring separation of the various vineyard harvests also at the busiest times.

The production has been stable for approximately 20 years at around one million bottles a year, 60% of which are distributed in Italy and the rest in 45 foreign countries.

The TABELLIONATO was a hand drawn sign based originally on the common sign of the cross, and subsequently enriched with more complex symbols. Drawn by the notary as a further guarantee on the deeds which he prepared, it was later substituted by a stamp and lastly by a true seal. The Ruggeri family were notaries for almost 200 years between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The sign of the TABELLIONATO of RUGGER RUGGERI notary of 1768 has been placed on the labels. The letters RRN can be found at the top of the triangle, symbol of perfection and divinity, legitimate source of every power. At the centre of the triangle we can find truth, represented by a pierced heart topped with a flame.

Inside the wide territory of Prosecco DOC (Controlled Denomination of Origin) the historical and small area of Valdobbiadene DOCG (Controlled and Guaranteed Denomination of Origin) stands out for its excellent quality grapes and its wine is named VALDOBBIADENE PROSECCO SUPERIORE. Near Valdobbiadene there is the prestigious cru known as Cartizze. The sparkling wine from this area is called VALDOBBIADENE SUPERIORE DI CARTIZZE.

 Valdobbiadene is indisputably one of the most interesting vine-growing areas in terms of quality and indeed its vineyards have always produced the most prestigious and fragrant Prosecco Superiore. The presence of many old and sometimes very old vines contributes to raising the quality of the Valdobbiadene vineyards. Thanks to its considerable root system, an old Glera vine, which may be defined as “the memory of the region”, successfully copes with the varied climate so typical of the Valdobbiadene hills, thereby ensuring constantly high quality year by year. The Glera grape cluster, elongated and lightly packed with long thin stalks sustaining the lightly sun-kissed grapes, is itself as refined and elegant as the wine it produces. It is harvested in the second part of September, together with small quantities of the Verdiso and Perera grape which are equally represented in the vineyard and important for their acidity and aroma respectively.

Cartizze, or to be more precise Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze, represents the highest oenological expression of the area. This wine epitomizes the finesse, elegance and delicate fruit and floral aromas of the grapes grown in the exclusive and extremely limited Cartizze area. The fortunate exposure of the hills and the particular soil composition (consisting mostly of limestone, clay and sandstone) give origin to this highly characteristic and therefore greatly sought after wine.

 Cartizze traditionally has a delicate vein of sweetness. At one time the grapes were harvested as late as possible (the end of October or even early November) so that the chilly night temperatures would halt the fermentation process, which began again spontaneously the following spring when the first warmth brought the yeasts back to life. This fermentation technique had the rare attribute of being very slow, thus offering the possibility to enjoy, for a few months, extremely pleasant, sparkling and subtle wines with a marvellous bouquet and a sweet, fruity taste.

The philosophy of the winery can be summed up quite simply: look after the product from the soil to the bottle. We start with a quality raw material of historically acclaimed origin and follow each and every step of the wine-making process with passionate dedication and disciplined methodology. This attention to detail allows us to offer you, the consumer, a consistently high quality product at any time of year.

Can Sumoi is the name of an estate, a winery, and a wine label but, above all, it’s the name of an idea: that of feeling nature, working on its form, and turning it into wine.

This is how we undertook this project, which is based on the preservation of the landscape, the recovery of high mountain vineyards in the heart of the Penedès and the production of minimal intervention, organic wines that express, in each bottle, a way of understanding viticulture, that is, of respecting nature, that is, of understanding the world.

Wine becomes much more than just wine when it is cable of authentically expressing a territory. That is, when a glass tangibly adopts all that series of intangible values at first glance: the landscapes, the colours, the fauna, the flora, the suffering, the effort, the dreams, and the horizons of a specific corner of the world.

To achieve this, you need to be respectful of the environment, protect the territory, preserve its authenticity and ensure that nature does naturally what it always knows how to do: resist, survive and return to life in an authentic way.

It is with such purpose that Can Sumoi was born in 2017: the challenge of recovering the vital heartbeat in an abandoned farm, preserving it through agriculture and giving expression to it by making wines with minimal intervention, capable of naturally conveying the territory where they are born.

We like to make wines the same way we treat the landscape where they are born: in an organic and natural way, with minimal intervention throughout all the viticulture processes, from the vineyard to the cellar.

We work manually, without added chemicals or oenological additives and only with a minimum of sulphites during the bottling process, following the French Vin Nature regulations with less than 30mg/l of sulphites per litre of wine. And, naturally, we do all this for a very natural reason: to turn each wine we make into a living and genuine expression of the territory.

“Our wines come from tough soils, from men who have the talent of listening to nature and an heart filled with long experience and great passion. With this commitment we want to be good ambassadors of the territory and of the production of Italian wine.”

Paladin Wineries are located between Veneto and Friuli, where the two regional cultures melted together. The vineyards were planted here, along the ancient Roman Postumia road, on the calcareous clays formed during the last glaciation by the Tagliamento river, resorting to the most modern viticultural techniques.

The history of the winery started in 1962 with Valentino Paladin and has developed thanks to the energies lavished by his children Carlo, Lucia and Roberto, carrying out the task of putting years of happy and fruitful experiences in the field to good use.

In 1977 Paladin family purchased the first vineyards in Annone Veneto, in a territory known for the production of high-quality grapes and founded the  Bosco del Merlo, name present on the topographical maps in memory of the oak woods which used to cover the area. The old vineyards were gradually substituted by plants of modern conception, thanks to a profitable collaboration with the Istituto Sperimentale per la Viticoltura in Conegliano.

In 1985 a new and modern winery was built in Annone Veneto, close to the Bosco del Merlo estate.

Together with the development of the winery facilities, the number of collaborators has also increased. This well-qualified and committed staff is taking part in the winery projects with great enthusiasm.

At the end of the ’90s, the family purchased a further 50 hectares of land in Lison di Portogruaro, which is the heart of this wine area. Today, Bosco del Merlo estate is made up of 100 hectares.

The beginning of the new millennium marked other important moments in the history of the winery. In spring 2001 the new headquarters were officially opened: a beautiful villa, built in the Palladian style hosting the head office, the trade and administrative departments. Here the ageing cellars and the tasting rooms create a fascinating atmosphere.

Such a devotion has been well rewarded. The wines which participate in the most important international enological competitions are every year recognized with awards, and the Paladin and Bosco del Merlo wines add a touch of class and charm to the best restaurants and wine shops.

Paladin Family, thanks to its long experience in the Veneto region, started an important project in the world of wine and oil in Tuscany, in the heart of Chianti Gallo Nero.

Vèscine estate is located in Castelvecchi, near to Radda in Chianti, on the most charming hills of Chianti Classico area and lies right at the foot of the historical castle, an authentic jewel for history lovers. The cellar dates back to 11st century and the tourist is wrapped in its magical Medieval atmosphere.
Vèscine estate grows Sangiovese and Canaiolo grapes for the production of great Chianti Classico and Chianti Classico Riserva wines. Vèscine produces also a wonderful Chianti Classico DOP olive oil.
Vèscine is also a 4-star relais, a charming Medieval hamlet in Radda in Chianti. Tourists will be able to enjoy a wonderful holiday filled with nature, art, history, wine and oil – all elements to which Paladin family has always been bound.

Bernhard Ott is a man who exudes bonhomie and a certain irrepressible air of good living, but this only briefly serves to conceal a shrewd and very determined operator, one who has turned his family business into the source of some of the most immediately recognisable incarnations of Austria’s all-defeating Gruner Veltliner variety. ‘Come in’ he said upon our recent arrival, ‘we will have lunch. I have’ he continued, a cook. Every day she prepares lunch for all of the employees of the firm, and everyone sits down together and eats. And in keeping with the philosophy of the company, all of the food is organic.

We were shown to a table in the tasting room, and served cream of cauliflower soup followed by thick-slices of braised ham, lentils and slabs of dumpling, the heartiest of traditional peasant food, and with it we tasted through his strikingly green, wonderfully pure, aromatic 2016 Gruners, delicious wines marked by a fine mineral intensity combined with a degree of richness derived from the organic and biodynamic husbandry of the vines. After lunch we tasted the 2017s, some just bottled (the bottling of the market-leading ‘Am Berg’ was taking place during our visit). He explained that biodynamic viticulture has pulled his harvest date quite dramatically forward.

‘When I first took over, I would always harvest after my neighbours. Now I harvest four weeks before them.’ The musts are given a period of skin contact. ‘I am looking for mouthfeel, complexity and richness without getting extract, weight or alcohol.’

95% of the production here is of Gruner Veltliner, most of the rest Riesling. There is arguably a degree of atypicity in the wines, a note of apparent richness that belies the fact that they are bone dry, with rarely more than 1 degree of residual sugar except in the Der Ott, which can extend to a still very modest 2-3 degrees, but one feels that he is sensitive to it, keen to know what you think, and worried that you might not approve. He need not fear. I was delighted to find a bottle of Am Berg in an excellent restaurant in Stockholm last year, and the table lapped it up. Bright, mineral, lifted, with a note of citrus, a gentle mid-palate, and fine persistence, it acts as a perfect ambassador to the food-friendliness of the Gruner variety. Fass 4, from older, better situated parcels is still brighter, more intense, beautifully balanced, dry and elegant, tighter and more concise than Am Berg, whilst Der Ott, which comes from a single parcel of 10-30 year old vines, is bright and crisp, with notable focus and precision.

Thanks to its team, as well as passion and boundless love for the owners of wine-making, the company has been growing steadily, reaching goals and gaining new markets.

Going with professionalism and responsibility to solve the problem, with the support of his wife, Mary, and later his son Enzo, who did everything possible to make them some of the best vineyards in the region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

The turning point came in 1991 with the acquisition of the territory adjacent to the river Isontso. It is due to its variability and frequent flooding of the river, the soil layers are continually changing and mixed. There were purchased the first 15 hectares of Cru I Feudi di Romans,whose land is distinguished by a large content of crushed stone and painted red, indicating the high level of mineralization. The first wine from this area were released in 1996 and immediately found its fans, whose number is growing every year. 

Today, the company belongs to Lorentzonhas 120 hectares of vineyards in the region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, planted with indigenous and international grape varieties. In the management of winery attended by representatives of the third generation - David and Nicolas Lorentzon. Due to high quality wines that reflect the true spirit of family traditions and the unique character of the land, Lorenzon family products are popular not only in Italy but also in over 20 countries around the world.

In 1865, young cousins ​​Norwegians Theodor Wiese and Dankert Krohn created in Portugal Trading House "Wiese & Krohn",which was engaged in the export port in Germany and the Scandinavian countries. For several years, the sales were not different scale, and in 1880 Theodore Wiese sold his business companion, while the remaining work as a commercial agent in Norway. Over time, thanks in part to its merits, sales have increased significantly, and the company entered a period of economic growth and prosperity. Dankert Krohn died in 1906 and headed "Wiese & Krohn" were just four people. Among them were the widow and daughter of the deceased, as well as employees of the company - Accounting Gomez Figueiredo and British manager Edmund Ernsbi. Thanks to their joint efforts the company has significantly expanded its business and entered the market in Belgium, France and the Netherlands.

In 1921, the company is undergoing serious changes. Gomes Figueiredo resigned, and Edmund Ernsbi, redeem all shares of the company took in partners brother Frederick, who by that time was known as an experienced professional taster port. At the same time, since 1910 in the company's export manager positions worked Edmundo Carneiro Falcao, who after his death in 1933, Edmund Ernsbi and retirement Ernsbi Frederick, acquired all the shares of the company and became its sovereign owner. Since 1935 "Wiese & Krohn" becomes only Portuguese company, although retained in its title the Norwegian names of the founders.

Currently, the House is controlled brother and sister Yolanda and Jose Carneiro - the third generation of the family Falcao Carneiro. The company owns the estate of Quinta do Retiro Novo, which is located in the prestigious area of the Douro Valley Rio Torto. Port wines from this region are known for their excellent quality. The company also owns six wine cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia, and one in the basement of the Douro Valley, they kept more than five million liters of excellent Portuguese port. "Wiese & Krohn" traditionally cooperates only with reliable suppliers of the wines which are even gorgeous vintage varieties of the drink. Like many decades ago, port Krohn mostly sold outside the country. More than 90% of the beverage sold in Europe in recent years he has also become increasingly popular in the United States and Brazil.
