8. Santa Margherita

Ever since its creation, in 1935, Santa Margherita has represented the dream of its founder Gaetano Marzotto: putting into practice viticulture that is modern and efficient, made up of people, nature and technology working in harmony. It was his tribute to Margherita, his beloved wife from whom the company takes its name.

Eastern Veneto, Conegliano-Valdobbiadene, Alto Adige are the areas where Santa Margherita wines are created. They differ in terms of climate and of soil composition, yet all three are united by an age-old wine making tradition that dates back to colonisation by the Roman Legions. Eastern Veneto is, as we’ve already mentioned, the “cradle” of Santa Margherita.
