Winemaker Paulo | Grapedistrict

Paulo Simoncelli

Winemaker Paulo is a rarity in the wine world. His wines are so popular locally that exporting them is almost impossible. Every year, we do our best to keep his wines in our selection!

Winemaker's words:

“My family has been cultivating wine grapes for over 200 years. However, it was my father, Armando, who decided in 1977 to stop selling the grapes to the local cooperative and to start producing wine under our own name. The winery is located in 'Navesel,' an old port on the Adige, just southwest of Rovereto, in Vallagarina. Thanks to the valley soil and the damming of the river, fertile land has been created. The vineyards have found an ideal environment to develop and produce high-quality grapes.”
