Carolina Gatti is a winemaker, blogger and above all winemaker. Determined and courageous, free.

His company extends over 5 hectares in Ponte di Piave, on the hills of Conegliano-Valdobbiadene. Inextricably linked to Raboso del Piave, a truly little-known but generous variety, if you know how to work with it, Carolina already has many harvests under her belt, having participated in those at home since she was a child.

He approaches wine with a conventional idea of ​​it but quickly embraces the poorly interventionist and natural philosophy.

Proof of this are the facilities in which he grows his vines in the Treviso area, an ancient and truly obsolete technique, Belussera. It is a non-mechanized farming system similar to rays.

Her vineyards are approaching 100 years old and were handed over to her by her father Lorenzo, who still helps her today, together with her mother Renata and brother Lino.

The cellar is truly an enormous ecosystem given that next to the vineyards there are corn fields and cattle are raised from which the organic substance used as fertilizer also derives.

The treatments in the vineyard are very few, ranging from Bordeaux mixture to a minimal distribution of sulfur and copper, in the cellar only native yeasts are used, the wines are not filtered and sulfur dioxide is added in very small quantities.
