Stefano Legnani

Legnani-Stefano

I was born in December 1956 in Bologna, where I spent the first twenty years of my life. I was educated at the Agricultural Secondary School, and from there I started the “first chapter” of my life, when I worked as an Insurance Agent.

My “second chapter” however, as a small-scale winemaker, began in 2005, when I decided to re-plant my family’s land with vines, banning from the outset the use of chemicals, both within the vineyard and in the winery. This “metamorphosis” later became definitive when I gave up my former profession in 2012. Since 2010 I have been a Board Member at the VinNatur Association.

VinNatur was established in 2006, the result of the need to unite small-scale producers of natural wines, both Italian and European, allowing them to publicise their products and at the same time widen their own knowledge specific to natural viticulture and winemaking.
