I don’t come from a family of winegrowers.
I didn’t inherit land or agricultural traditions. But over time, a strong, simple passion grew: wine.
From there, a clear question arose:
“What if I really tried to make it my profession?”
My story
W h o I a m
A personal choice, not a legacy.
I was born in Padua and followed a straightforward path: a degree in Economics, and a couple of years working in Frankfurt at a major European institution.
But at some point, I felt the need to change direction.
I wanted to do something concrete, to build something that truly represented me.

Abruzzo was not a return, but a choice born from an encounter.
A land that struck me with its authenticity: hills overlooking the sea, tranquility, simple yet character-rich landscapes.
Here, I realized I could start something of my own.
This is how Tenuta Fanton was born:
not to continue a family tradition, but to build a new project with strong roots and a vision focused on the future.

Every vine planted and every bottle produced represent a concrete step in this journey. A journey based on respect for nature and its timing, but also on a contemporary approach, open to innovation and change.
My goal is to tell the story of an authentic Abruzzo, using a simple, direct language that can be understood even beyond the borders of this land.
For me, wine is this: a tangible way to give value to the land, time, and the work of people.
