WINE, THE ART OF MAN
Since 1984, Cantina Zaccagnini has embarked on a path that has led it to become a creative space, a cultural landmark for artists, musicians, writers and art lovers.
ART AND WINE
An inseparable bond
Approaching our estate in Bolognano, you cross the threshold of a world where aesthetics embraces taste. From David Bade’s ‘Pulcino’ to the artistic portal by Franco Summa, you are welcomed by an exhibition of over 40 works of art set among the vine rows. Vineyard and winery become open-air museums.
Two forms of pleasure that equally require cultivation with love, patience and rigour.
DISCOVER OUR WINES
Vineyard and winery are places where art is breathed every day
The cultural and life project of Marcello Zaccagnini, to merge his passion for winemaking with that for art, was sealed on 13 May 1984, the day when, inside the barrel room of Cantina Zaccagnini, the German Master Joseph Beuys, renowned for his artistic, social and environmental commitment, held the debate ‘In Defence of Nature’, one of his most significant works that continues to resonate through time as both a warning and a source of inspiration.
THE LEGACY OF JOSEPH BEUYS
“In Defence of Nature” was an artistic, ecological and anthropological project, an opportunity to share scientific analyses and philosophical insights. Joseph Beuys said, referring to our Tralcetto bottle: “It is a work of art that has wine inside”. That spark bound Cantina Zaccagnini forever to the utmost respect for the environment and a pure love for artistic creation.
