TEAMING UP TO SPRINT
TOWARDS ITALIAN EXCELLENCE

The GIRO D’ITALIA

is a race—but also a journey through regions, cultures and local identities. A living heritage that unfolds stage after stage, telling the story of Italy, its landscapes and a one-of-a-kind way of life.

THE PINOT GRIGIO DOC DELLE VENEZIE

is born from a unique territory: the Triveneto, embracing Veneto, Friuli Venezia Giulia and the Autonomous Province of Trento. An area shaped by an ideal microclimate, expressed in every sip through lightness, versatility and style.

WHY THESE EXCELLENCES ARE ONE OF A KIND

THE GIRO D’ITALIA

A cornerstone of Italian sporting culture. Founded in 1909, the Corsa Rosa is an epic narrative that crosses Italy, celebrating its roads, its history, its legends.

MYTH AND HISTORY

The Maglia Rosa:: introduced in 1931 as a tribute to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the newspaper that founded the race
Legends:: Fausto Coppi (youngest winner in 1940), Gino Bartali, Eddy Merckx, Felice Gimondi, Giuseppe Saronni, Francesco Moser, Marco Pantani, Vincenzo Nibali
Iconic Climbs:: Stelvio Pass (often Cima Coppi), Gavia, Mortirolo, Fedaia
The toughest Giro:: 1914, with stages over 400 km, mud-filled roads and mass withdrawals

THE DOC DELLE VENEZIE

The largest viticultural area in Italy, accounting for around 85% of total Italian Pinot Grigio production, already the world’s leading producer by volume. A scale that speaks of one of the most structured realities in European winemaking—and of a true ability to work as a team through a virtuous model of collective governance.

Around 27,000 hectares of vineyards

Over 6,000 winegrowers and nearly 1,000 wineries

Approximately 230 million bottles produced every year
