Limestone
Cellar
Pietro Sartori, the man of great personality, bought the first vineyard and villa, the future headquarters of the Sartori company, in 1898. From then on, the baton passed to his son Regolo, who made elegance the hallmark of Sartori wines. He was succeeded by Pierumberto and Franco, whose far-sightedness took a further step forward by signing an agreement with the Cantina di Colognola ai Colli. Through this exchange of knowledge between fathers and sons, a business grew and strengthened that has openness and inclusiveness as its hallmarks. All the way to the present day, with the current vision of Luca and Andrea Sartori.
