i. Biography

The Climb

At Bonotto Delle Tezze in Loc. Tezze di Piave, Vazzola, Italy, the work is defined by continuity: harvest, cellar, land, and village life are held together in the same daily rhythm. Antonio Bonotto is tied to that cadence through Raboso, the specialty that shapes the estate’s identity and gives his wines their clearest line of expression. Wine here is treated as an inherited practice, maintained through repetition, discipline, and attention.

Today

As winemaker at Bonotto Delle Tezze, Antonio Bonotto works from the same property and keeps Raboso at the center of the house style. The role sits between what has been handed down and what is still being refined, with the estate’s character made visible through that balance. It is a position rooted in place, but not static; the work continues to adjust, clarify, and preserve the register of the wines. The line places wine inside daily life rather than apart from it, and frames excellence as something measured against identity, not display.

Signature

Antonio Bonotto's signature wines include Malanotte del Piave DOCG, POTESTÀ, Luigi Venti, Raboso Passito, and Grapariol Officina. Read together, these bottles show a cellar built around place and variation: each one extends the Bonotto Delle Tezze language without leaving the same ground.

Recognition

The strongest recognition attached to this work is custodial. Antonio Bonotto describes the role this way: The emphasis is on carrying something forward rather than performing it, with modernity and science brought back into contact with family, village, and the practical discipline of the estate.
