What Fasoli Gino does

Fasoli Gino, legally constituted as ICARO S.r.l., is a family-owned winery founded in 1925 and currently in its fourth generation of ownership, operating from Colognola ai Colli in the Val d'Illasi, eastern Verona. The company produces and sells organic and biodynamic wines across four sub-brands: Prime Line (premium single-vineyard and centenary wines such as Fasoli Gino 100, Alteo Amarone, Valpo, Dolso), La Corte del Pozzo (Valpolicella classics including Amarone DOCG, Valpolicella Ripasso, Bardolino), White Line (Soave, Bianco Veronese, Chardonnay), and Metodo Classico (Creaman sparkling wines from Garganega). The portfolio encompasses roughly 27 SKUs at price points ranging from €12 for entry-level wines to €155 for the centenary bottling, alongside ancillary products such as olive oil, grappa, and gift boxes.

Production rests on traditional Veronese viticulture: pergola corta veronese and guyot training, appassimento drying, and barrique/botti aging, underpinned by 40+ years of organic farming and nearly two decades of biodynamic practice. The estate holds EU Organic, Bio Suisse, Vegan, and Equalitas sustainability certifications.

The commercial model is direct-to-consumer and vertically integrated: a WooCommerce storefront ships to 35+ countries, an on-site Wine Shop (opened 2016) and enoteca handle domestic retail, guided tasting experiences (Assolo, Cru Experience, Wine Experience) priced €40-€130 monetize wine tourism, and the Magari Estates boutique hotel plus Tenuta Le Cave generate hospitality revenue. Customer segments are wine enthusiasts and collectors, luxury hospitality guests, sustainability-conscious consumers, and a smaller trade/retail tail. Marketing relies on the company's centenary heritage, sustainability credentials, event programming, and earned media including Forbes recognition as a 2026 Wine Travel Awards must-visit winery.
