The best wineries in Bergamo.
Brugherata is owned by the Bendinelli family and is located in Scanzorosciate, an ancient municipality of winemaking tradition, located seven kilometers east of Bergamo, in the middle of the production area of Moscato di Scanzo. Founded in the late 80s, now boasts a production of 10 hectares of vineyards and 1 of olive groves. The commitment in qualitative research has led to produce wines that are the fruit of the land, harmonic and caressing the palate, the maximum expression of the pleasure of drinking. The company blends admirably the pursuit of excellence in quality and respect for the territory, completed by a passion for the aesthetic and the surrounding landscape. In the midst of the vineyards there are fruit trees, a multitude of flowers and Mediterranean plants, including 15,000 rose bushes. From the hill top, dominated by olive groves and an artificial lake, you can enjoy the view of this natural spectacle. The land of Bergamo has shown to be able to give great wines and Brugherata has found confirmation of this through various awards, but especially thanks to the consent of admirers. The company’s motto is "Wine of art" because there a lot in common between the artist and the winegrower, between a beautiful picture and a good wine: patience, love, imagination and will. The true symbol of the Doge Moscato di Scanzo DOCG, a historic wine of the historic oenology of Bergamo produced exclusively in the Scanzorosciate municipality is going with no doubt to be counted among the great Italian raisin wines. The holder Paul Bendinelli has the merit of the establishment of the Consortium for the Protection of Moscato di Scanzo, of which he was the President until 2010 and in the obtaining of the DOCG. In addition to Moscato, excellent white and red wines, a brut of a great character and ultimately a delicate and sweet extra virgin olive oil, typically similar to the oil of Garda, are produced.
Il Calepino company combines in its denomination the enological and cultural values of the hilly area called Valcalepio.
It was Angelo Plebani, in 1972, who designed and built the company, naming it with this curious name, inextricably linking his precious bottles and the famous encyclopedic friar.
In the Valcalepio DOC area, the Il Calepino company extends its vineyards on moraine terraces (called Sure), where vines always find a suitable home: the draining soil is ideal for obtaining an optimum state of ripeness of grapes and therefore wines of intense, complex and typical bouquet.
Ronco della Fola was founded in 1979 with the intention of giving life to a small business reality, of modern organization, for the production of quality wines, focusing initially on "Moscato di Scanzo".
For several years, the company has added to the production of Moscato di Scanzo that of other wines, keeping unchanged the production philosophy, always geared to the achievement of the best possible quality, in the utmost respect for nature.
The company was founded in the eighties thanks to the commitment and tenacity of Mr. Patrizio, his son Eligio and his wife Luciana, who in the area of Valcaleppio have been able to recognize and choose the best land for the cultivation of vines, producing fine quality wines.
The company has always believed in quality productions, and then, in low yields per hectare and considerable attention in winemaking and maturation of wines.
In 1984 Pierangelo Testa decided to place side-by-side in his yard "tri plok" (manufactured articles on cement with barrels for wine) an oasis of green in Valle Calepio in Carobbio Degli Angeli, two hectares of fertile ground. It is rich in marbled, grape trodden and fertile and from time immemorial reserved for wine growing. Here it is possible to produce palatable rural wines, very intense, with the bouquet of sweet Must (in early times producing not so good, naïve and a certain amount of raw wine). At one time the vineyard produced everything you could produce from grapes and the results weren't exciting, but the wines from the Hill of Angels were alcoholic (about 13%).
Pierangelo Testa worked with intuition. Today you can find on the hill a wedding keepsake vineyard. It is a small expansion but it is very promising, vintage after vintage. Trees are chosen according to the characteristics of the ground, the climate and microclimate. The dream of Pierangelo Testa has transformed from a hobby into a real passion. This passion has been transmitted to his wife Manuela, to daughters Laura, Roberta and Maria who's waiting Francesco, the last son, to follow closely his parent's example. "The cellar is in the forefront, it is very functional, pleasant and suggests harmony. Here sacredness plays with silence and the "stoned" Angels are waiting for new events with anxiety."
