For May 2005 we choose as Company of the Month the Azienda Agricola Malibrán, a family run commercial farm located in the Valdobbiadene zone, the homeland of the appreciated Prosecco sparkling wine. In that area the love for vines has century old roots, and the geometric textures that weave up and down the hilly landscape is there to prove it. For over three generations the Favrel family has taken loving care of Prosecco vineyards, the historic grape native of this pre-Alpine corner of Italy, whose ripe golden grapes show through the lusciuous green of the leaves when they ripen.

From Vinitaly to Vino in Villa, from the National Show of Spumante Wines to the Prosecco Great Prize, from the Italian Flavor Forum to the L. A. County Fair, Malibrán wines can be found and tasted in all the major Italian and international wine trade shows and competitions.

In addition, it is the most selective competition worldwide, since medals are awarded only to 3 percent of the participating wines, that is, just 88 medals for 3,500 wines. View Article
