History
The Tamellini family's history in Soave began with grandfather Ettore, who in 1930 mortgaged his land to help found, with thirty other growers, the Cantina Sociale di Soave; after the war, in 1947, Luigino planted the family's first three hectares.
The winery as it is today was founded in 1998 by brothers Gaetano and Pio Francesco Tamellini, the fourth generation, making exclusively Garganega-based wines.
Farming 30 hectares at Costeggiola organically, they make a large-production Soave DOC alongside the volcanic-soil cru Le Bine de Costiola.
