Cristina and Cantrina, the beauties of Valtènesi - Occidente Gardesano

We like to approach work in the vineyard and in the cellar as a ”free exercise of style...”, therefore free of preconceptions and conditioning, but with the utmost respect for the peculiarities that nature bestows on the fruit of our vineyards. Words and music by Cristina Inganni and Diego Lavo, owners of one of the most beautiful oenological realities of the Valtènesi (strictly with an accent). La Cantrina as we call it, is a small winery founded in the early 1990s, located in a small village (Cantrina precisely) in the municipality of Bedizzole. The company covers about 6 hectares and has a total production of 20 thousand bottles. The vineyards enjoy a very favourable microclimate and soil, sunshine and good temperature ranges favour the ripening of the grapes, while the morainic soils manage to give the wines structure and freshness at the same time.”

Raise your glasses to Merlot - Lombardy on the table

With the success obtained with the Benaco Bresciano Nepomuceno 2003, in particular, the Cantrina winery has repeated the prestigious result already achieved two years ago with the wine from the 2001 harvest. Lombardy, and in particular the Garda area, is therefore among the most suitable areas for Merlot, and Cantrina proves this. “From the outset,” said Cristina Inganni of the Cantrina winery, "we have been oriented towards the production of medium and long ageing wines based on international wines. The choice may appear counter to the Gardesana tradition, but we believe that this can be a personal opportunity to express the idea of territory, of terroir, given that the same grape variety offers extremely different results in situations that are geographically and culturally distant".

A pure Merlot of unprecedented power (15° alcohol and plenty of density) but also perfectly balanced, harmonious and even flowing in spite of the analytical data. And Nepomuceno 2003 (from San Giovanni Nepomuceno) from Cantrina di Bedizzole in the Brescia area, a small winery run with extraordinary passion by Cristina Inganni.

I Vigneti della Cantrina - Informa Cibo

The Azienda Agricola “Cantrina” managed, in the first person, by Crìstina Inganni has succeeded in making this synthesis, dedicating its production to the finest crus of a historic wine house, desired by Dario Dattoli, a lover of French wines, “transferred” to the gentle hills of Lake Garda. Upon the untimely death of the young entrepreneur Dario Dattoli (1998), his young wife Cristina Inganni, a set designer by profession in Milan (Brera Academy) decided to continue the project with the collaboration of Diego Lavo, an expert in the field of agriculture and wine production, assisted by the Zynè oenological team.
