When Ernesto Cattel and his partners founded Costadilà, meaning ‘the hillside over there’, their goal was to reintroduce natural farming to the Tarzo, a municipality in the province of Treviso (Veneto), rejuvenating the region’s rich agricultural tradition. What emerged was a polyculture of vines, fruits, vegetables, and livestock coexisting organically on shared plots: a traditional “closed loop” small farm.

The farm is set in the hills north of Venice, the land of “Prosecco di Conegliano e Valdobbiabene”. The Mat, a sparkling white wine, is bottle aged for five years, unfiltered and with no added sulphites. The o-x is an orange sparkling wine macerated on the skins for longer than the Mat and the Rosso is made with marzemino and merlot varietals, typical to the Colli Trevigiani.
