September 25, 2025 (Medolla – Modena, Italy) — Ventiventi, founded by the Razzaboni family in 2020, is one of the few wineries in Emilia-Romagna that believes and invests in the Metodo Classico.
This choice goes beyond a simple production technique, it becomes a statement of identity. In a region traditionally associated with Lambrusco and its fresh, sparkling expressions, the Razzaboni family winery has taken a bold, unconventional path—demonstrating that even native grape varieties can reveal finesse, complexity, and remarkable longevity through bottle refermentation.
“Metodo Classico is not just a process, it’s time becoming an ingredient; it’s about respecting the raw material and striving to enhance authenticity without compromise,” says Andrea Razzaboni, the winery’s oenologist. “Ventiventi has chosen to build its identity on freshness, minerality, and a vision that embraces lightness without ever giving up depth. The result is a range of sparkling wines that express the vocation of the Modena territory in a new light, where Metodo Classico is not merely a tribute to international style, but a true interpretation of our Emilian roots,” continues the Razzaboni family’s winemaker.
The Blanc de Blancs, made from 100% Pignoletto grapes, is one of the most original expressions of Metodo Classico according to Ventiventi. This grape variety, often considered secondary to other white grapes, finds a new dimension in this vinification style, where citrusy freshness and white fruit notes intertwine with enveloping creaminess and striking minerality.
The Rouge de Noirs, crafted from Lambrusco Salamino di Santa Croce, challenges the notion that this variety is only suited for sparkling red wines. It shows how the grape can be expressed in a refined, deep, and surprisingly vertical style.
Ventiventi Rosé, made from Lambrusco di Sorbara, is a tribute to finesse: its delicate aromas of flowers and red fruits meet a bold savoriness, delivering a dynamic, food-friendly sip.
The Pas Dosé, a blend of Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay, and Sorbara, is the quintessence of Ventiventi’s philosophy: essential, pure, uncompromising — a wine that enhances the natural tension of the terroir and the precision of Metodo Classico.
Ventiventi Brut, where Chardonnay meets Lambrusco di Sorbara, is a bridge between Emilia and the world — a sparkling wine that combines structure, freshness, and a unique character.
For Ventiventi, Metodo Classico is neither a trend nor experimentation for its own sake.
It is the choice of a long timeframe, of necessary patience, of artisanal care that refuses shortcuts. It is the way the winery has chosen to express its vision of wine: not as a product to be consumed quickly, but as an experience built over time, one that continues to evolve in the glass.
With this philosophy, Ventiventi not only celebrates Emilian tradition but projects it in a new direction, proving that even a region known for its conviviality can produce wines of great refinement, wines capable of defying time and surprising with every sip.
An approach that perfectly reflects the values of FIVI – the Italian Federation of Independent Winegrowers, which Ventiventi joined in November 2023. Being an independent winegrower doesn’t just mean cultivating your own vineyards and producing your own wine, it means doing so with a clear vision, placing quality, connection to the land, and transparency with the consumer at the center. Joining FIVI means becoming part of a network of producers who share the same philosophy: who believe in protecting biodiversity and in valuing an authentic production model, far removed from industrial logic.
For Ventiventi, it is an important recognition — but above all, a commitment to continue along this path with the same passion and determination.
About Ventiventi Winery
It all began in 2014 with the acquisition of land — the first step in grounding a dream in the heart of Emilia that, in Medolla (Modena), hosts the 70 hectares of property, 30 of which are planted with vines, along with the winery itself. The choice of land was no accident. Its alluvial composition — 45% clay, 47% silt, and 8% sand — offers an ideal habitat for the vine. With the first planting in 2016, the roots were not only those of the vines, but of a family ready to care for every row, every shoot, fully aware that patience is the first ingredient of success.
The first harvest in 2018 represented the result of years of waiting and work, but it was only the beginning. The real turning point came in 2020, the year that, not by chance, gives the winery its name. With the official release of its first wines, Ventiventi entered the market and began to make its way in a competitive and constantly evolving sector. The decision to adopt Metodo Classico, the commitment to sustainability, and the obsessive attention to quality proved to be the key to standing out. The approach, based on enhancing local varieties such as Lambrusco Salamino di Santa Croce, Sorbara, Ancellotta, and Pignoletto, is complemented by international varieties like Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Traminer. Today, production includes over 66,000 bottles, ranging across Metodo Classico, Charmat, and still wines.
“Our project stands out because it represents the synthesis of three visions and three different approaches. Working as brothers isn’t always easy, but it’s precisely in this complexity that we find our strength,” say the Razzaboni brothers, Andrea, Riccardo, and Tommaso. The enthusiasm for the challenge is reflected in the entire production philosophy, which sees the young, dynamic, and family-driven approach as an added value that translates into unique market offerings.
Since November 2023, Ventiventi has been part of FIVI – the Italian Federation of Independent Winegrowers, a choice that strengthens the company’s identity and certifies its authentic and transparent approach.
