THE ORIGINS

The Dream

1951

In the heart of the post-war period, Luigi Lebovitz began trading wine in Governolo. With vision and determination, he founded the winery and built the premises that still house our company today. The business focused on the sale of wine in demijohns, marking the first chapter of our history.

1958

The passion for wine spreads within the family: Luigi's brother's sons, Enzo and Silvano, learn the art of winemaking and later found their own winery in Piadena.

1978

Gianni Lebovitz, after obtaining his degree in oenology, joins the company to oversee the wine production. This marks the beginning of bottle sales, with the first manual bottling machines, while the production facilities are expanded to accommodate a more structured bottling line.

1991

Our most iconic wine is born: Al Scagarün. A symbol of our tradition and dedication to quality.

The evolution

1993

A new chapter begins with the entry of Paolo Zamboni, the son of Gianni’s sister, into the company. With him comes the first major technological transformation: the introduction of autoclaves and the transition from a manual bottling system to a fully automated one.

1995

The first historic participation in Vinitaly (Verona) and ProWein (Düsseldorf), marking the beginning of our presence in international markets.

2002

A prestigious collaboration begins with the Cantina di Carpi for the supply of musts used in the production of our wines.

The expansion

Luigi Lebovitz passes away at the age of 89, leaving an extraordinary legacy: a winery capable of producing over 700,000 bottles a year and serving as a reference point for 12 winegrowers in the region.

2014 -2020

Lebovitz Lambrusco conquers the world thanks to a historic collaboration with an importer in Tokyo, marking the beginning of its international spread, which continues today in Asia, Africa, Spain, and Eastern European countries.

2017

Innovation without compromise: the bottling line is completely overhauled with cutting-edge machinery, capable of bottling up to 2,500 bottles per hour, interconnected through Industry 4.0. A new generation takes the reins: Davide, Gianni's son, joins the company to carry forward the family vision with an eye on the future.
