Description Of History And Philosophy:
Quattro Mani, or “four hands,” showcases celebrity Italian
winemakers who express the character and strength of Italy’s rich
viticultural heritage, interpreted through their unique personalities.
These winemakers were selected for their skill in allowing vineyards
to speak through the wine, reflflecting the belief that the essence
of a region can be best expressed through its traditional wines.
Quattro Mani wines are produced from estate-grown fruit using
sustainable agriculture, and are bottled at the source. Quattro
Mani made its debut in 2006 with Montepulciano d’Abruzzo made
by acclaimed winemaker Attilio Pagli. Quattro Mani [toh-kai],
produced by the skilled hands of Movia’s Aleš Kristancic, followed
in 2008. Tocai grapes are grown in Movia’s organically farmed Exto
Gredic vineyard; the wine is made at the Movia winery in accordance
with the biodynamic principles. Franciacorta, produced by the
celebrated Franciacorta pioneer Emanuele Rabotti, joined the lineup
in 2010. In 2011, Quattro Mani Barbera which is produced by the skilled winemaker Danilo Drocco who has been described as "One of the Great Names of Piedmontese Winemaking" by Robert Parker was launched.
