The Cesari winery was founded in 1936 by Gerardo Cesari, who began with forty hectares of vineyards within the province of Verona. In the early 1960’s, Gerardo’s son, Franco, took control of the family business. Franco expanded the winery operation and began to explore the export market. Today, Cesari wines are exported worldwide. As the demand continued to grow Franco expanded his holdings, acquiring an impressive collection of vineyards throughout the Veneto. Their production now includes excellent single vineyard Amarone as well as an array of innovative and traditional Veronese selections. The future of the winery has also been secured as Franco's children, Deborah and Gerardo, work diligently in marketing and sales. Their efforts ensure that the business with thrive for generations to come.
