Caterina Mastella speaks about the Allegrini ‘transformation’
They called it a transformation, some even a fight, and the War of the Roses practically got pointed out. The separation in the Allegrini family, with Marilisa “Woman Amarone” and her children Carlotta and Caterina on one side and Francesco, Giovanni and Matteo on the other, and their cousin Silvia– respectively the children of Franco and Walter, Marilisa’s bros– is a department of the group’s cellars.
Poggio Al Tesoro in Bolgheri, San Polo in Montalcino, and Vacation Home Della Torre in Fumane in Valpolicella will stay in Marilisa’s household while Allegrini and Corte Giara will be owned by Francesco and his bros.
A white wine lover, then, has an interest in comparable concerns, the crucial thing is that he discovers the white wines he enjoys on the rack of the white wine store or in the dining establishment. To make this possible, nevertheless, jobs and organization strategies are required. So, we went to go to Caterina Mastella Allegrini, to discuss the future of her “part”.
Caterina, before having a look at the future, exists anything you want to mention about the separation of business in between household branches? “When you mature, there are various viewpoints on how to act and there is a threat that a combined vision, which is the one that makes whatever go round. We will continue to handle the truths to which we were most connected and the vineyard that as soon as enabled the production of Palazzo della Torre will be ours alone. The group, I want to mention, has constantly had a supervisory vision and management with advertisement hoc figures in specific functions, otherwise a business with practically 30 million in turnover and 150 staff members would not have actually gone anywhere. Now, the 2 sides will continue, each in their own method, according to their own vision.”
Let’s pertained to you, how will these realities alter your life and your jobs? “My sis Carlotta and I, operating in 2 wineries that will now be the lead characters of our group, were really included and listened to by mom on the concern of separation. We will have more decision-making power however likewise higher duty. The business that will comprise the brand-new group, beginning with Tuscany, are Poggio al Tesoro in Bolgheri, with an overall of 70 hectares in Bolgheri and a Viognier vineyard in Bibbona from which we produce the white Sondraia, and San Polo in Montalcino which, for the area, with 22 hectares it is a medium-sized business.”
And in Veneto?” Vacation Home Della Torre, acquired in 2008, was the group’s representative head office and the location where 3 white wines different from the Allegrini production had actually currently been produced considering that 2019: Valpolicella, Lugana and Amarone. Now, it will obtain higher autonomy and boost production which will go from the existing 25 thousand to 150 thousand bottles in the coming years, thanks to brand-new systems and the acquisition of the whole vineyard surrounding the Vacation home. In general, we will not desert any of our possessions and will perform a job of our own, made not just of white wine however likewise of hospitality locations with a white wine tourist viewpoint.”
Do you believe the separation could produce confusion amongst customers? “Our brand-new group will have a name however it has actually not yet been chosen and we are not offering a schedule at the minute likewise since each of our business currently has its own identity. In the early phases, I fear that some confusion amongst the last customer will be inescapable, however we will do whatever we can to guarantee this does not take place. We will offer a clear various vision to our task.”
Taking a look at the names, one quality of this trio stands apart …” Yes, 3 females at the helm of a female-led group. A gorgeous signal, of fantastic significance particularly in these times.”
