MAESTRO Italiano Rosso IGT

WINERY HISTORY

The Cielo Family fourth generation is commited to produce unique wines for elegance and personality. In 1908 Giovanni Cielo, the founder, purchased a small estate in Montorso, just overlooking the Castles of Romeo and Juliet. Grandfather Pietro developed the wine business and saved the estate during the war.The Cielo third generation, Giovanni, Renzo and Piergiorgio, took the reins in the 1960s. Innovation and commitment made the winery well reputed all across Italy.With the fourth generation, Pierpaolo and Luca, the Cielo winery joined Cantine dei Colli Berici and was renamed Cielo e Terra (Sky and Earth). This is a successful union between a family company and a cooperative.

In more than 20 years Cielo e Terra has made a real boost. It went from 5 to 75% export quota and now it is present in more than 60 markets with mostly fine wines (IGT and DOC). The winery became also a leader in sustainability practices, with projects to support people and help the planet.
