From one generation to the next

Since he was a teenager, Bernardo has been involved in the small family farm in Colbertaldo, where his father Giuliano produces Prosecco, and in 1983 he obtained his degree in Enology.

In the years that followed, his resourcefulness and intuition allowed him to progressively develop his business. At first, he embarked on the profession of intermediary in the wine sector and later created the CE.VI.V. company – an acronym for “Centro di Vinificazione Valdobbiadenese” – specializing in the winemaking process, while also continuing with investments on the agricultural side.

In fact, the common denominator of its growth is Prosecco: from the historic Conegliano-Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Docg, to the Asolo Prosecco Superiore Docg, as well as in the Prosecco Doc area. In particular, Bernardo was the first to invest in Belluno, a territory once dedicated to viticulture and which he believes is capable of guaranteeing a viable product.

Luisa Francesca Bellussi also boasts roots linked to the wine sector, where she took her first steps in the working world. After meeting Bernardo in 1990, she joined and supported him in all entrepreneurial projects, as well as in life.

Taking over from her mother-in-law, in 1994 she became the owner of the “Le Rive” agricultural business, which would come to manage over 150 hectares of vineyards between owned and leased. Over time, Luisa has established herself as the rational, methodical, and operational part of all the companies, able to bring Bernardo’s creativity to life and specializing in the administrative side.
