Venue: Azienda Agricola Cantrina – Patricia Guy
“Venue: Azienda Agricola Cantrina (near the hamlet of Cantrina, which is near Lake Garda) I am giving two producers, a winemaking student and the representative from the Local Wine Roads association a final lesson in speaking about wine in English. Cristina, the owner of the estate, is a vivacious and attractive young woman. She had been an interior designer up until the death of her first husband. She then decided to take over and run the business. “I like wines with strong personalities,” she says. She designed the logo for the company, which is used on most labels – a sun surrounded by undulating rays of light. “My husband was from the South of Italy,” she says. “Where there is a lot of sun. So I chose to make the logo as a remembrance of him.”
