THE DREAM OF PROSECCO
THE DREAM OF PROSECCO
The Bortolomiol family together with Veronelli Editore have produced the a book entitled Giuliano Bortolomiol – Il sogno del Prosecco (The Dream of Prosecco), the latest biography from the series Semi - I Protagonisti delle Culture Materiali. These books tell the stories of men and women who lived with the land, working more with actions than with words, more with genuine products than with mere intentions.
The Dream of Prosecco is an affectionate look at a husband and father. But it is also a well-deserved homage to and recognition of this great man, the pioneer of Prosecco, telling his story while providing the reader with precious insight into the history of this land and its culture.
The book was written by Ettore Gobbato who chose to tell Giuliano’s story by recreating his daily routines, reproducing dialogues and everyday events. In order to achieve this he conducted dozens of interviews, the final result being a biography which reads almost like a novel. What emerges is a picture of man who, over a generation, with patience and determination took Prosecco from being a simple local wine to being the internationally acclaimed wine it is today.
