Label / history

Cielo e Terra was founded in 1908. Its name combines terra, meaning “earth”, with the surname of its founders, the Cielo family. Pietro Cielo began expanding and improving production in 1930; new vineyards were established and production increased in 1962. The winery is now run by fourth-generation brothers Luca and Pierpaolo Cielo and forms part of Gruppo Cantine Colli Berici.
