Vittorio Dal Bello at work in the old cellar – 1970s
Recantina is one of the most authentic and ancient grape varieties in the Asolo and Montello area.
Recantina is a memory that spans generations. As early as the 1970s, Vittorio Dal Bello, the second generation of the family, was cultivating this grape variety.
Vittorio personally bottled the wine and took the few bottles to the village, so that they could be shared during local festivals and community gatherings.
Today, this wine also draws on that memory: on the desire to continue a story that has its roots in the land, the family and the people.
Our Recantina finds its natural habitat on the Monte Grappa Riviera. Here, amidst morainic soils and breezes sweeping down from the mountain, a rare and distinctive red grape variety thrives.
But the connection to the land extends not only to the vines, but also to the people who call it home and live it.
For this project, we have chosen to collaborate with a local cooperative, ‘Vita e Lavoro’, which works every day to provide opportunities and inclusion for people facing difficulties.

Recantina DOC Asolo Montello Dal Bello
A full-bodied red wine with aromas reminiscent of undergrowth, blackcurrants and red berries. On the palate, it is smooth and well-balanced, with an elegant structure and a brief period of ageing in medium-sized barrels.
The label features a design created by a guest at the “Vita e Lavoro” cooperative.
This design draws inspiration from the natural elements that define our region.
From this story comes our Recantina wine, a union of territory, memory and collaboration.
