The Italian company Giusti Wine was in fact developed from the original Dal Col vineyard owned by his wife's family, which dated back to 1945. Although just a small estate with a few hectares of land it was highly renowned for its traditional, quality production of Prosecco, Bianchetta and Verdiso wine. In Italy the company's full name is Societa Agricola Giusti-Dal Col srl. Giusti Wine developed very rapidly. From the first vineyard planted in 2002, today it includes an area of approximative 75 hectares producing white and red wines. We take pride in the quality of our lands and vineyards. This is why we have opened our doors and we are offering a first-hand experience in the heart of our properties. We have two town-houses at our main office and 3 suites in the Abbazia (The Abbey) Property.

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of visiting northern Italy, in particular the Veneto Region, the first week of October 2019. At the recommendation of a friend, Magda Beverari, we had occasion to visit the Giusti Winery located in Nervessa della Battaglia, Veneto Region. Magda is not only very knowledgeable on the history and geography of Italy but also works as a Wine Tourist Guide/Wine Specialist in Italy and other parts of Europe. She also works occasionally as a tour guide in her home town of Verona. We were greeted at the Giusti Winery by Umberto Teot who gave us some history about the early days of Joe Giusti and the Giusti Winery. It is an extraordinary success story of hard work with a genuine desire by Mr Giusti to preserve history of the local area. We thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour and wine tasting with the charming and very knowledgeable wine expert Valentino Radaelli. Mr Teot went above and beyond in his duties as a host when he took us for a tour of some of the surrounding properties including the Abbazia Sant’Eustachio Abby which has been restored thanks to Mr Guisti. We had a fantastic afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed meeting the staff who treated us as VIPs. If success is a result of who you surround yourself with, then Mr Giusti has a great eye for loyalty and talent. C&M Benson Ottawa, Canada

If you are lucky enough to be in Verona during opera season and have any appreciation for the arts or architecture tickets are a must. Feel the majesty of watching a world class opera in an ancient arena. Feel more like a local bring a pillow pad for your sitting pleasure. Whatever show you are going to see be prepared to be throughly entranced, between the colorful array of costume detail, set design and shear vocal talent, you no doubt will be blown away. The arena will transport you to another time as the sun goes down and the players songs and dance burn into your memories with passion and fire.
