Among the hills of Lessini Durello Spumante, our sparkling wine is born.

The fresh air of the Lessini Mountains and the volcanic soil impart with its distinctive and unparalleled character.

Since 1987, when the Lessini Durello denomination obtained the DOC recognition, the Consortium has been involved in promoting the wines produced on the hilly arch and in the high valleys that extend north of the provinces of Verona and Vicenza.

From the pastures of Lessinia, Formaggio Monte Veronese DOP is produced in three different varieties. The main ingredients of this cheese are, first and foremost, the high-quality milk from farms located in the mountainous community’s territory, along with respect for tradition, passion, experience, and hygienically controlled environments.

Recognized as a PDO in 1996, the Monte Veronese Consortium has since been committed to promoting and safeguarding the production and trade of all recognized types of cheese: "Latte Intero," "d’Allevo," and "d’Allevo made with Alpine milk".

Over centuries, humans have adapted, creating terraces and mastering techniques to harness the land's potential.

Volcanic Agriculture of Europe

Volcanic Agriculture of Europe is a project sponsored by the European Union aimed at promoting the Soave, Soave Superiore, Lessini Durello, Santorini and Monte Veronese DOPs.

Protected designations of origin supported by the Italian wine Consortium of Soave and Recioto di Soave, the Consortium of Lessini Durello, the Greek Consortium Union of Santorini Cooperatives – Santo Wines and the Consortium of the Monte Veronese cheese.

Particularly, in this case, the aim is to emphasize the unique and distinctive characteristics of denominations unified by a decisive factor: the volcanic terroir, pertaining to the origins, characteristics of the soil, exposure and altimetry.
