Enoitalia

What Enoitalia does

Enoitalia is one of the largest privately-owned Italian wine producers, headquartered in Calmasino di Bardolino (Verona) with a second winery commissioned in 2018 in Montebello Vicentino dedicated primarily to sparkling wine production. Founded in 1986 and acquired by Italian Wine Brands S.p.A. (IWB Group) in 2021, the company operates as IWB Italia S.p.A. and produced 170+ million bottles in 2021 under the IWB umbrella, ranking among the top 10 Italian wine companies by turnover per Pambianco, Corriere della Sera L'Economia, and Tre Bicchieri surveys, and among the top 3 Prosecco producers in Italy.

The product portfolio spans more than 20 sub-brands organized by positioning: sparkling and Prosecco brands (VOGA Italia, Alberto Nani, Soffio, Pop It Now), organic/vegan lines (Terra Venetica, Vinuva, Vegania, Farmers Of Wine), regional and premium concepts (Aristocratico, Gemma di Luna, Lignum Vitis, Passo Sardo, Dal Vulcano, Ca' Montini), supported by VIVA sustainability and ICEA Bio-Vegan certifications and packaging-led differentiation such as the Lignum wooden label industrial design and distinctive bottle formats.

The business is overwhelmingly B2B wholesale-driven, with approximately 80% of production exported through 200+ distribution partners across more than 80 countries on 5 continents, sold into international distributors, Ho.Re.Ca (hotels/restaurants/cafes), GDO grocery retail, and an expanding travel retail / duty-free channel. Disclosed revenue reached €199.3M in 2019 (+9.63% YoY) and €201M in 2020 despite COVID-19 disruption, while 2021 IWB Group revenue grew 107.33% post-acquisition. The company has begun layering in direct-to-consumer distribution through the Enowinery e-commerce platform launched in 2020/2021 for the Italian market.
