The Fugolo Gianluca Agricultural Company was born in the heart of the Valpolicella Classica a few steps from Lake Garda, on the left bank of the Adige river in the town of Pescantina (VR).

Family of farmers for four generations, the great-grandfather Modesto with his son Vittorio moved in 1940 to work as a sharecropper from Padua to Verona, in the same footsteps my father Mario carries on his passion for this land by creating a small family-run business in the heart of Pescantina: "the land of peaches"

Today, with the same passion and toughness, I carry on the family farm growing peaches, vines and olives between Pescantina, San Pietro in Cariano and Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella and Calmasino.

The fifth generation is the future: my daughters Michela and Sofia. I am transfer them on the same passion as their grandfather Mario and my vision of agriculture...
