How it all started

Casa Vinicola Poletti was founded in 1928 by Aurelio Poletti. Thanks to the hard work of its founder, the three generations that followed him, and the people who have supported

the company with honest and industrious work, it has been possible to maintain a high level of quality in the product and service offered.

The original facility in the center of Imola began as a winery specializing in the production of local grapes and the production of wines in demijohns. In response to market demands, an automatic glass bottling line was developed in the 1960s.

In the 1970s , Aurelio Poletti created synergies with the local area by investing in agricultural land in various areas of Imola. The POLETTI family has always cared about its territory. Several investments were made in land suitable for vineyard cultivation.

The first agricultural businesses were established, and their own grape production began.

The first developments

Casa Vinicola Poletti enters the world of supplies to the Italian Army, beginning a long collaboration that has led it towards bottled wines and its outlook on the future changes.

In the 1980s, bottled wine sales developed and grew alongside the first Italian supermarkets. Large-scale Italian retail trade was growing and found a good partner in Casa Vinicola Poletti, a supplier of quality and authenticity.

During this decade, the company purchased a second winery in Imola, expanding it and investing over time in technology and staff, with a capacity of approximately 80,000 quintals of grapes.

In the 1990s, the company experienced a significant expansion in its packaged wine production capacity, further upgrading its machinery and bottling line.

Demand also came from abroad, and the American market opened up . This development prompted the POLETTI family to consider a major investment, moving the company to a new facility with more dynamic and modern bottling flows and lines. Construction began on the plant facing the A14 motorway.

The 2000s

In 2001, the headquarters moved from the centre of Imola to the new industrial facility at Via Molino Rosso 12 , with ample space for manoeuvring on its 8,000 metres of land and 4,000 metres of covered space and with new bottling, storage and shipping technologies.

Since this move, Poletti has continued to invest in winemaking and bottling technology. The market continues to evolve, with ever-evolving demands, and the POLETTI company hasn't stopped:

New bottling and bottle labelling lines, currently 7 lines

New winemaking technologies

New investments in grapes through ongoing discussions with farmers

New investments to create an eco-sustainable company

Over time, a strong synergy was created with wineries in different areas of Italy, which allowed the expansion of the product portfolio, thus managing to offer a very broad product portfolio and to capture even more international interest.

The story continues

In 2010, CO.VI.R Cantina Viticoltori Romagnoli was founded , which today has a membership

of around 250 members and currently harvests 180,000 quintals of grapes in the area , all processed in Casa Vinicola Poletti.

In 2017 , the VALDARNO cooperative winery in TUSCANY was acquired . This company is developing a strong presence in the CHIANTI region and bringing new growth opportunities. It currently comprises approximately 150 hectares of vineyards and a winery producing approximately 3.5 million quintals of Chianti wine .

In 2023, Poletti purchased a winery near its Imola headquarters to increase its ability to source its products directly from the source. This new winery has a capacity of over 200,000 hl and a significant grape processing potential. From this production site, Poletti gains quality control over most of its products, from the vineyard to the bottle.

Production cycle

The Poletti Winery passionately oversees every stage of the production cycle , ensuring quality and authenticity in every bottle. From the estates located between Tuscany and Romagna , where the vineyards thrive, the grapes are harvested and vinified thanks to the collaboration with COVIR, a cooperative with which we share values ​​and experience. The wine is then bottled at the Poletti Winery , where tradition and innovation meet to create unique products. Finally, through our distribution network, the wines reach consumers and enthusiasts throughout Italy and the world , bringing the flavor and soul of our land everywhere.

Cantine CECI 1938, an international winery for over 80 years, brings the passion of Italian tradition to the world, together with a forward-looking vision and a relentless desire for innovation. CECI 1938 produces one of the world's best-loved Lambrusco wines – the famous red bubbles – a wine that the company has transformed over time into a unique nectar, setting new standards of recognisability. It’s a smooth wine, an ode to conviviality that lends itself beautifully to pairing; a true icon of the winery’s modernity. On the web, the company tells its story through its website www.lambrusco.it , a domain registered with pride and foresight in the early 1990s.

Design plays an essential role in CECI 1938’s style, fuelling its research into the shapes and colours used to create the unusual bottles and labels, truly stylish creations with a touch of cool.

Cantine Ceci, established in 1938 by Otello Ceci, experienced an initial period of growth in the 1960s under Otello’s sons Bruno and Giovanni, who made their mark on the company for the next twenty years.

Today the grandchildren of Otello, Alessandro, Maria Paola and Maria Teresa, and the great-grandchildren Elisa and Chiara, continue the family’s story with their bold, distinctive choices, challenging the market by bringing inspirations and influences from other industries such as fashion, design and art to traditional winemaking.

The aim is to stand out, offering an unconventional approach to one of the most traditional Italian industries, to speak to young people in a contemporary language. CECI 1938 products are distributed to 44 countries.

Celli winery was set up in 1965 in Bertinoro by the Sirri and Casadei families, nicknamed "Bron and Rusèval".  Over the years Celli has become a reference point for the classic character of this rich territory. Today the company produces from an array of organic certified vineyards,  which are all located around the town Bertinoro, on the hills of Romagna. 

The diversity of soils and microclimates of our 4 plots of vineyards, defines four different characters, a collection useful for fine-tuning highly balanced and strongly territorial wines. We produce wines from following grapes: SANGIOVESE, ALBANA, PAGADEBIT, TREBBIANO, CHARDONNAY AND CABERNET SAUVIGNON.

Celli Wines have been multi awarded by the main Italian and international wine competitions and prestigious Wine Guides. 

This year our wine Bron & Rusèval Sangiovese Riserva Bertinoro has been awarded with the TRE BICCHIERI GAMBERO ROSSO PRIZE!

The “Spungone”, the calcareous rock of organic origin that formed in the shallow waters as Romagna emerged from the sea, combined with the presence of active limestone, gives the area’s wines unique characteristics. 

Fattoria Paradiso, the historic winery owned by the Pezzi family, cultivates 70 hectares of vineyards, including 10 of the most

prestigious crus in Romagna. Active since 1853, it has saved the native Pagadebit and Cagnina grape varieties from extinction

and created the first reserve of pure Sangiovese, the famous Vigna delle Lepri. Another pride and joy is Barbarossa, an ancient

grape variety rediscovered in 1954. Located in Bertinoro (FC), in the hills between Forlì and Cesena, in a panoramic position

overlooking the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines and the Adriatic Sea, it enjoys an ideal microclimate. The historic headquarters,

formerly Castello Ugarte Lovatelli, dates back to the 15th century.

Tre Monti winery was founded in the early 1970s by Thea and Sergio Navacchia, driven by passion and innovation in winemaking. After Thea’s passing in 1989, their sons, David and Vittorio, continued the legacy, focusing on modernizing both vineyard practices and cellar management. The family collaborated with renowned enologists, including Donato Lanati, to enhance their expertise.

The winery operates two estates: one near Imola, the other near Forlì, covering 55 hectares of vineyards. Their production focuses on traditional regional varieties like Albana, Trebbiano, and Sangiovese. Tre Monti was also a pioneer in producing Sauvignon Blanc in Emilia-Romagna.

Committed to sustainability, the winery transitioned to organic farming in 2014, becoming certified for its entire production. They were also among the first in Italy to introduce wines without added sulfites. Tre Monti’s philosophy reflects a deep respect for nature and a dedication to authentic winemaking traditions.
