Upon entering into the new headquarters of Cantine Umberto Bortolotti situated in the heart of Valdobbiadene, the recent renovation expresses the sensation of tradition brought about by the attention to detail and innovation influenced by the evolution of the discerning customers expectations. This has always been the philosophy of one of the historical producers in Valdobbiadene, founded in 1947 by Umberto Bortolotti, a pioneer in local oenology with a passion for the territory. Umberto Bortolotti became one of the founders of the National Sparkling Wine Exhibition and the Confraternita del Prosecco. Today his son Bruno with the grandson Daniele has inherited this tradition and with the same passion and motivation continues to combine tradition with innovation creating new variations of sparkling wines. Yearly production is around 975.000 bottles, 540.000 of which are Valdobbiadene DOCG. Visits to the winery are possible upon appointment for groups not exceeding 50 people .

In the 1980s the Bortolomiol family purchased and subsequently renovated an ancient silk mill in the heart of Valdobbiadene: the sympathetic restoration was carried out with regard for the industrial archaeology and the character that the complex had at the beginning of the last century. The complex of buildings renovated by the Bortolomiol family is the smallest of the four that existed in the Valdobbiadene area at the start of the 1900s and is in the centre of the town, inside a splendid Park – the Parco della Filandetta – which hosts the organic vineyard, the first winery, an avenue of ancient hornbeams and some works by the sculptor Casellato. The silk mill has now been converted into a bright and spacious tasting room and is today an Art & Wine Farm, or rather a showcase for all the skills involved in winemaking, a new concept where art and culture come together and enhance each other.
