The family Maculan has been making wine for three generations in Breganze, a small town found at the foothills of the Dolomite mountains northwest of Venice. The current generation has led the family winery away from the mass production of merely acceptable wines toward a quest for wines of highest quality. Fausto, an oenologist who trained at the Conegliano Wine Institute, also studied winemaking practices in France and California. Today he is also a wine making consultant to several top clients in Italy. The quality of the vineyard holdings around Breganze is impressive and Maculan has continued to purchase prime vineyard parcels in the area as they become available. The technique of production he employs includes the use of French oak barrels and the finest and most modern equipment available. The wines include fresh and fruity whites, rich and complex reds and sumptuous, prize-winning dessert wines such as his Dindarello and the highly acclaimed Torcolato.
