How would I define myself? A custodian of the earth." This is how Elisabetta Foradori, also nicknamed "the lady of Teroldego", talks about herself. The Foradori company is located in Mezzolombardo in the middle of Campo Rotaliano, an alluvial plain formed by the Noce river and surrounded by vertical walls of dolomite rock. The company was founded in 1901, but the first wines bottled by the Foradori family date back to grandfather Roberto, in the early 1950s. Thanks to the innovative ideas of Rainer Zierock and the vision and tenacity of Elisabetta Foradori, the company has managed to gradually spread the native Teroldego vine. Today the whole family is involved: Emilio (the philosopher) as oenologist and agronomist, Theo (the political scientist) as popularizer and diplomat, Myrtha (the agronomist) as responsible for vegetable production. Elisabetta remains the top advisor and takes care of the agricultural diversification of Foradori. Compartments are never watertight and everything is created and evolves thanks to the team of collaborators. The Foradori work the 25.5 hectares of vineyards by hand and delve into agronomic practices through the concepts of biodynamics. They know that they are temporary managers of everyone's land and therefore have the duty to respect and protect it. They believe in agricultural diversification and independence, in the professional and human development of those who work. The in-depth study of Teroldego follows two paths: respect for tradition (Granato and Foradori) and the search for more experimental expressions (Morei, Sgarzon and Lezèr). On the hills of Cognola, however, they work with the Nosiola and Incrocio Manzoni whites. The company is constantly moving to improve themselves and support those around them: Elisabetta's result was to obtain a grape with characteristics that perfectly reflect the territory.
