Elegance, exclusivity, and pleasure

In the realm of probabilities, both things and people often appear to possess a predetermined destiny; such is the retrospective view when considering the history of the Villa. Its current aristocratic demeanor owes itself to two distinct renovation endeavors, separated by a century.

Elegance, exclusivity, and gratification: these are the guiding principles behind every decision made in relation to the Antica Fratta project. Extending beyond its wines, it encompasses every aspect. Attention to detail is paramount, setting the Antica Fratta approach apart. Unusual in the wine world, there is a near-obsessive focus on packaging and presentation. Production is meticulously monitored and intentionally limited, entrusted only to carefully chosen partners — this is the definition of exclusivity.

At the heart of the philosophy lies the restoration of man and his professionalism, placing them at the forefront. The aim is to forge an intimate connection and close collaboration between those involved in producing and selling Antica Fratta, ensuring that this project remains a cohesive, shared endeavor.
