The wine magazine Civiltà del bere has recently published the 2021 medals that specifically highlight the excellence of Italian wines linked to typicality.

The Schenk Italian Wineries wines awarded are:

• Lunadoro Gran Pagliareto 2017 – Gold medal –  The Best Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG
  Typicality: 9
  “An excellent combination of high quality and territorial identity”.

• Bacio della Luna Prosecco Superiore DOCG 2020 Extra Dry – Silver medal
  Typicality: 8
  “Bright straw yellow, light and evanescent mousse. On the nose red apple, sage, wisteria. Soft, fruity palate, good balance between acidity and sugars.”

• Bacio della Luna Classical Method Brut 2020 (disgorgement 2021) – Bronze medal
  Typicality: 7
  “Intense straw yellow with golden reflections, varietal aroma of apple, acacia flower, wisteria. Fruity on the palate, caressing perlage, notes of banana, red apple, creamy touch. Discreet persistence.”

We are particularly happy with the results achieved by our estate in Tuscany and by the winery in Vidor, territories that we have always tried to enhance in their terroirs.

8 September 2021, Ora (BZ)

“The Schenk Italian Wineries Group closes the first six months of 2021 with record numbers, with a 21% increase in turnover compared to the same period last year. The 2020 lockdown and the consequent blocking of the away-from-home sector had in fact caused a sharp slowdown in demand for sparkling wines, but the return to full production of the Bacio della Luna sparkling wine division this year has allowed numbers to return to growth. In the first half of the year, EBIT also grew by double figures, while the trend in the second half of the year remains delicate due to the increase in raw material prices, which will certainly have a significant impact on profitability. We remain very optimistic, however, and that is why we are continuing to invest in terms of plants, production and communication”.

This is how Daniele Simoni, CEO of Schenk Italian Wineries, describes the situation in the first six months of 2021 for the company based in Ora (BZ).  With a production of 51 million bottles and a consolidated Group turnover estimated at 130 million euros, Schenk Italian Wineries confirms that it is one of the most significant and solid wine producers in Italy.

Numbers that are destined to grow also thanks to investments aimed at sustainability, expansion of production facilities and communication, the cornerstones of the company’s strategy for the near future. The very recent acquisition by the Schenk Italian Wineries Group of an important organic vineyard in Puglia is moving in this direction.  “Schenk Italian Wineries continues its integrated supply chain strategy with the acquisition of an organically managed farm in Salento,” announces CEO Simoni. “The enormous commercial success of the Masso Antico brand at international level, which covers the most important Apulian appellations and focuses above all on Primitivo del Salento, has convinced the Swiss multinational owned by the Schenk Family to start an important agricultural development to give further consistency to the brand, continuing on the path of quality and sustainability already undertaken with Masso Antico since 2017.”

In addition, after obtaining the Equalitas certification last year, “the decision to purchase an organically managed estate allows Schenk Italia Wineries to add another piece to the green path of its companies,” concludes Daniele Simoni.  This green path now includes the completion of the conversion to organic of all the vineyards of the Lunadoro estate in Valiano di Montepulciano (SI), and the changing of the production lines to 4.0, an investment that will lead to considerable energy savings as well as more efficient results.

Venice, 17th September 2021

To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Bacio della Luna, we chose one of the most beautiful cities in the world and one of the most romantic panoramic terraces: Venice and Terrazza Danieli.

100 guests – friends, customers, partners and colleagues from Italy and abroad – spent the evening in Venice. We celebrated together Bacio della Luna, our winery located in a unique territory: Conegliano Valdobbiadene Unesco World Heritage.

We presented our new Bacio della Luna Anniversary Collection Limited Edition to the 100 guests participating to the Gala Dinner. The event took place in Terrazza Danieli, one of the most beautiful location of Venice, a perfect spot on the Canal Grande.

10.000 numbered bottles of our new Prosecco Superiore DOCG Extra Dry, a Millesimato 2020, an exclusive result of 2 hectares of micro-terroir. They are unique and unrepeatable as our celebrations.

After a year and a half we were finally able to see again friends, customers, partners and colleagues from Italy and from European countries that allow us to travel.

The festive atmosphere, a wonderful Venice and all the people who shared the evening, gave us an unforgettable birthday.

We couldn’t ask for more!

Bacio della Luna Anniversary Collection Limited Edition is available on Vineria43.it
