It is the full expression of the Venegazzù territory, in the Alta Marca Trevigiana, north of Venice. Created in the 1950s as a result of the finest selection of grapes from the estate, it has always been an original vanguard in the interpretation of the blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, where the beautiful freshness of Venegazzù's iron-rich soils brings a natural elegance.

THE STORY OF THE “Lui e Lei” LABEL

A limited edition of the famous Capo di Stato wine by Loredan Gasparini, featuring two bottles that represent the dual masculine and feminine soul of the grape that becomes wine — a “she” and a “he” fused into the same essence. The label artworks were created in 1967 by the Italian artist Tono Zancanaro (1960–1985) and are titled “Des Roses pour Madame” and “…et pour Monsieur la Bombe”.

THE WINE

This precious selection, first produced in 1964, was often used for official occasions in the city of Venice, and counts among its admirers several Heads of State, to whom it owes its name. It is made from a selection of grapes, in particular those from an old vineyard planted in 1946, known as “100 Piante” (“100 Plants”), where rare ancient clones and the red soils of Venegazzù create an extraordinary combination.
