Cantrina, the groppello made in Bedizzole has conquered the Big Apple - Giornale di Brescia

(...) “With only 30,000 bottles a year of wine born in Bedizzole, and what's more, the Brescian but very unknown Groppello, can one get into the Big Apple's most exclusive artistic circles? Cristina Inganni, who runs the Cantrina winery in Bedizzole with her husband Diego Lavo, says yes. On 4 March, in fact, in New York Cantrina was the sponsor of an event at Issue Project Room, a space totally dedicated to artists.

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. (...)

Her name is Cristina Inganni and she is the leader of the Cantrina winery, one of the most unique wineries in the Garda area. (...) From Lake Garda comes the emerging female face of the Brescia wine scene: a producer whose commitment has been recognised by the jury of journalists and cultural personalities appointed by the Brescia Province Agriculture Department to award the traditional “Brescianity Awards” for 2005.
