Storia
Vantorosso was founded in 2015 in the Valpolicella wine-growing area by Vanni Pasquale, who grew up among his family's vineyards.
His friend Franco Allegrini gave him a birthday present: the chance to take part in a real rally. On returning from the race, Vanni decided to make wine. Franco offered advice in the early days and now visits as a neighbor to taste the wines.
The name comes from the Italian "vanto", meaning a source of pride, a boast or an advantage. It was chosen because of Vanni's racing career.
