The story of the De Bortoli family is a story of fearlessness and determination that began almost a century ago in war-torn Italy. Vittorio De Bortoli left his homeland in 1924. He moved to Australia in search of a better life. Later his family and friends joined him. Thanks to Vittorio's keen intuition and new opportunities opened up for him, a small family winery named De Bortoli appeared in Australia.

Vittorio learned basic winemaking skills while growing up on a farm in the foothills of the Alps in northern Italy. However, he never planned to make money from his own alcoholic beverages. Who knew that the knowledge and skills he acquired as a child would be so useful to him in a new place?

Anyway, the De Bortoli family winery began its modest development with the production of small batches of dry table wine. Its main consumers were usually the same immigrants from Europe. But Vittorio with his valuable knowledge in the field of traditional Italian winemaking understood that he could do more. Family and friends supported him and joined the new family business. Gradually, through joint efforts, De Bortoli Wines gained a big name and an impeccable reputation.

Today, the once-humble family winery is known outside Australia as a producer of high-quality premium wines. The Noble One dessert wine, created in 1982, was the first to make a worldwide splash. It is still one of the most titled drinks in history. Then there were many other outstanding victories in professional winemaking competitions of the world scale.

Even after all these years, De Bortoli continues to be a family business. Today, the company is in its fourth generation. If you want to taste fine Australian wine and good home food, to be in pleasant company, to feel the value of family traditions and the true joy of life, then don't hesitate to visit De Bortoli Wines.
