The family-run activity continued to develop and expand during the 1930s thanks to the work of one of the sons, Pietro Cielo.

Under the guidance of third-generation brothers Pietro, Giovanni, Renzo, a new winery was established in the 1960s and the company expanded to cover the national Italian wine market.

Since taking over the reins of the company, fourth-generation Luca and Pierpaolo Cielo have given renewed scope and drive to its activities by merging the Cielo family tradition with the experience of over 2000 wine producers in the Colli Berici area.

This, together with ever-increasing attention to quality, has allowed Cielo e Terra to become the undisputed leader of large-scale retail trading in Italy, with an ever-increasing presence on foreign markets.[/toggle_lite][toggle_lite title="Grapes" opened=""]Merlot and Raboso[/toggle_lite][toggle_lite title="Vineyard" opened=""]Selected parcels on the hills of Colli Berici, near Vicenza in the Veneto region.[/toggle_lite][toggle_lite title="Vinification" opened=""]The grapes are picked by hand and vinified by the red wine method during a medium-short maceration conducted with selected yeasts and at controlled temperature.[/toggle_lite][toggle_lite title="Ageing" opened=""]The wine is bottled soon, so as to retain its natural freshness and rests in the bottle for a short period before being released for consumption.[/toggle_lite][toggle_lite title="Tasting Notes" opened=""]Bright ruby-red colour.
