Brescia protagonist at the turning point Vinitaly - Brescia Oggi

(...) many of which did not normally attend the event due to the excessively high costs. «Although I still believe that Vinitaly is not the right event for very small niche companies like mine, I believe that when participation is organised by a consortium, it becomes interesting to be present because the territory is of greater value than the individual company,» says Cristina Inganni of Cantrina in Bedizzole. However, I am not here with a commercial approach, but to make an investment in terms of public relations and networking«. Cantine Turina di Moniga was also among the many companies that had not been at Vinitaly for a few years. »For us it is a new experience," said Luigi Turina, "we believe it is important to be present alongside the Consortium to propose a new image of our companies and our territory, but also to seize the opportunities of the new Valtènesi DOC in which we have invested a lot.

The Cantrina winery is a dream, shattered by tragedy, reborn in hope. Thanks to the strength and tenacity of Cristina Inganni, from interior decorator to wine expert. That beautiful old mansion overlooking the hills of the Valtènesi, surrounded by greenery, just a stone's throw from the old village and the 18th-century church, had appealed to Dario Dattoli, a Calabrian all-star, a revolutionary entrepreneur in the city's restaurant industry. It was a return to the land for him, there was a great passion for the vine, which has ancient history there. It was love. A love paid with his life, on a sad morning under the tractor, between the rows of vines, personally spreading pesticides despite working at the restaurant until late at night. A love bequeathed to Cristina together with the estate in the hamlet of Cantrina di Bedizzole. They had been together for a few years, married for one. And she? Away from Brescia, away from work, Dario's dream must continue. Dattoli had founded the Cantrina estate in ’90, in ’98 without him Cristina became one of the women of wine in the province of Brescia. And art?

Cantrina: this is not a misprint, it is spelt just like that with an 'r'; it is the name of a hamlet of Bedizzole which, as chance would have it, was once famous precisely for its wine cellars. A pleasant place on the morainic hills sloping down towards Lake Garda, whose beneficial influences can be enjoyed right up here. The Cantrina winery was founded in 1990 thanks to Dario Dattoli, an enterprising character in the Brescian restaurant industry, owner of several establishments in the city, who literally fell in love with wine and decided to produce it himself with the help of his partner Cristina Inganni, who on the other hand graduated from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts. Supported by the advice of internationally renowned experts, Dattoli planted different varieties of vines, the most suitable for the type of climate and soil, on a total area of around six hectares until 1998. After Dattoli's untimely death in an accident, it was Cristina Inganni who continued along this path, assisted by Diego Lavo, an agricultural expert and wine expert, as well as an experienced mountaineer.

(...) He made us taste a wine called Eretico on the day of the Pope's funeral, but any less than pious intention must be firmly denied. Eretico adheres to the rules of oenology and is a Pinot Noir passito produced as a trial in that incredible year for heat and drought that was 2003. The experiment is intriguing and the result even more so. To be tried again. Proposing the Eretico wine is the Cantrina winery, which is making its debut at Vinitaly in a new, aggressive, communicative guise. The product, for those who could find Cantrina di Bedizzole, was already there. Cristina Inganni gloats about her new role and the new attention, which took the form of interested business contacts at Vinitaly. (...)
