Carpenè Malvolti

The winery where Prosecco first came to life. Antonio Carpenè succeeded in transforming the local wine, which until then had only been produced by the farmers of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene for their own use and consumption and with homemade and empirical methods, into an internationally renowned wine made, for the first time, with scientific methods and rigour. Today the company is run by Rosanna Carpenè, a fifth generation member of the longest-lived dynasty in Italian sparkling wine production. She is joined by her father Etile, the current president and main architect of the company's economic and productive development.
