On Their Own for 40 Years
After careers in the wine sector, the Martini family is making their own wine
Anyone who has been passionately active in the wine sector for a long
time wants to put their own stamp on wines at some point. That may be
at their own risk, but in fact also with their own signature. That is
precisely what the Martini family has done, and it was now more than
forty years ago that the K. Martini & Sohn Winery in Cornaiano was brought to life.
The
K in K. Martini & Sohn stands for the father Karl Martini, who
founded the winery in 1979 with his son Gabriel, and specifically in the
middle of their own vineyards in the winegrowing village of Cornaiano,
which belongs to the community of Appiano. At that time, both father
and son had already made their careers in the sector, so they brought
along the necessary know-how and the experience regarding wine that was essential for their success.
In
spite of that, the step to being on their own was not an easy one:
“Building up the winery was a hard piece of work,” Gabriel Martini
recounts today. “We filled, sealed, and labeled the first bottles by
hand.”
Because they were well aware of their size (or lack
thereof), they understood themselves at K. Martini & Sohn from the
very beginning to be a small but fine operation that focuses not only on
comprehensive and friendly service, but also above all else on quality.
“That alone justifies the existence of a small family operation,” says
Martini.
In addition, it is built upon a palette of wines that is
astonishingly large for a small operation which today comprises four
lines and ranges from Pinot Blanc, Pinot Grigio, and Pinot Noir to
Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Schiava, and Lagrein all the way to Yellow Muscat and Red Muscat.
