Ferrari Spumante - History

History

Giulio Ferrari was born on 9 April 1879. In 1902 Giulio Ferrari decided to make sparkling wine in Italy with same method of champagne. The metodo Ferrari is essentially the same as le methode Champenoise, with the wine being aged for four to five years, though being Italian, the product cannot be called Champagne.

On 1952, Giulio Ferrari was old and tired and he had no children, so he chose Bruno Lunelli (1907-1973 who owned a shop of wines in Trento) to carry on the winery, also because Lunelli had 5 children. At tha time, Ferrari was making 9,000 bottles per year.

Giulio Ferrari died in Trento on 14 January 1965.

Bruno Lunelli on 1969, when he was 63 years old, decided to step down and to leave responsibilities to the second generation: Franco (1935), Giorgio (1937), Gino (1939), Carla (1945) e Mauro (1948).

Bruno Lunelli died on 1973 when he was 66 years old.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    These anyway might think it was important
    That human history should not be shortened.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    To history therefore I must refer for answer, in which it would be an unhappy passage indeed, which should shew by what fatal indulgence of subordinate views and passions, a contest for an atom had defeated well founded prospects of giving liberty to half the globe.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
