OUR MANIFESTO
In an increasingly frenetic world, in which progress tends to distance us from the concept of responsibility, we at Torresella have chosen to return to our roots. To put ourselves, and stay, on the side of nature.
Located in the beautiful Venice Lagoon, we celebrate nature as our true home and teacher. This unique ecosystem inspires us daily to protect our surroundings and to establish a harmonious relationship with them. Our approach is not just a declaration of intent, but a tangible commitment to preserving the integrity of the ecosystem for future generations.
Our commitment ‘On the side of nature’ reflects the realisation that human well-being is closely linked to the health of the planet.
It is a promise to give back to our earth what it has generously given us. That precious gift that we bring to your table today with our wines.

TOTAL CONTROL OF THE PRODUCTION PROCESS
Torresella was created with a very clear underlying principle: excellence stems from attention to detail. For this reason, it is indispensable for us to have direct control of every phase of the production process, from the planting of the vineyards to vinification and maturation in our cellars, as well as the bottling and marketing of our wines. Being able to control the entire production cycle and being able to decide when and how to intervene allows us to guarantee that we can always adhere to the very highest standards of quality.
Every day, the technical and scientific expertise of the people involved throughout the production chain is brought into play. They are professionals who have mastered the art of vine-growing and make use of technology just to enhance the fruits of their labors in the vineyards.
Human values are our constant concern, including when we are dealing with the local partners on whom we depend for a proportion of our grapes. With them, we have a stable relationship that dates back many years. We work alongside them in managing their vineyards and we provide the necessary technical support so that their cultivation methods and the grapes they produce are in line with our high standards. Raising the level of quality of viticulture in the zone is an integral part of Torresella’s mission: a way of showing appreciation to our region for what it offers us.
WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INNOVATORS
Torresella’s decision to be innovative was a clear one from the very beginning, when we brought to our region a project for high-quality viticulture. This included the analysis, preparation and draining of the soil, the selection of rootstocks and clones, and a great deal more besides: we carried out innumerable activities and specific operations, all with the objective of creating wines of true worth.
Of fundamental importance was our initial investment of time and resources in order to study the sector’s best practices at an international level. The wealth of new knowledge and skills with which we returned to Torresella was one of the keystones for taking the path of innovation in such a decisive manner. Resulting as they did from a professional and scientific approach to cultivating vines, the innovations that we have introduced ever since have contributed towards transforming a zone with great potential into one that is constantly improving and expanding from a viticultural point of view.
We have been precursors, experimenters and innovators in many fields. Torresella is a beacon for wine production in its zone, and it has the responsibility of taking the risk of innovating, so as to also open up new paths for smaller local producers.
TORRESELLA AND THE SANTA MARGHERITA WINE GROUP
