Gabriele has been cultivating a dream for years: to revitalize the Mondragon hills through agriculture. It is an area of ​​the upper Treviso area abandoned since the 1960s, attacked by brambles and undergrowth, which he has been recovering since he left his profession to return to his origins. It is a hostile and isolated territory, which requires a lot of hard work, but beautiful: from here you can see Venice. His grandparents worked these hills, produced grapes, wine, figs and raised cows for their own subsistence. The recovery of these lands began in 2012, gradually and surgically, without major earth movements: we recover by planting new vineyards and restoring the old ones, making new terraces because this is an extreme land. We are in the DOCG Prosecco Superiore but this is also an area suited to the cultivation of olives, figs, ancient varieties of pear, and dogwood. Here they collect chestnuts and wild herbs, produce a very special olive oil, honey, fig and chestnut beer, berry liqueur, pickled vegetables, herb preserves, hops, dandelion, carlina and elderberry. And quality wine. He started producing it in a small cellar, restored little by little by recycling a wooden garage door from the sixties (then he discovered that vins de garage are very fashionable). The small production (three, the labels) goes together with the recovery of the entire ecosystem and each activity is rooted in tradition but also looks to the future, because it is practiced in a totally natural way. MoVe stands for Mondragon-Venice but it also means movement and is a response, full of life, to the decade-long decline of agriculture. The goal goes beyond production, and is to create intelligent rural tourism: dry stone walls become a common good again, old farmhouses are restored for hospitality, ancient paths host trekking, horseback or bicycle itineraries, these places become drivers of lifestyles where you can recover your well-being.
