About us
Cà Vendalis: our home in the Euganean Hills
Cà Vendalis is the brand of the Agri Earth S.a.s. Agricultural Company,
founded in 2018 with the cultivation of cereals on about 40 hectares in
the heart of Polesine. From the beginning, our philosophy has been
to unite tradition and innovation, enhancing the territory
through careful, conscious and respectful production of
quality.
A new chapter in Faedo di Cinto Euganeo
In 2024,
driven by the desire to grow our project, we
chose to purchase a farm in Faedo di Cinto Euganeo, an enchanting
place immersed in the beauty of the Euganean Hills. Here, among
olive groves, vineyards and a forest of almost one hectare of chestnut
trees, a new phase of our history comes to life, even deeper and
rooted in the land.
The meaning of Cà Vendalis
Our name embodies the soul of the project and the deep connection with the Venetian culture:
- Cà: from the Venetian dialect, it means "home". It is the symbol of hospitality, of roots, of feeling part of a place where nature and history coexist in harmony.
- Vendalis: a tribute to Monte Venda, the highest peak of the Euganean Hills. It evokes the majesty of the landscape and its authenticity.
In our vineyards, we passionately cultivate varieties such as:
- Cabernet Sauvignon
- Merlot
- Moscato Giallo
- Glera
Our reality does not stop at agricultural production.
With agritourism and wine tourism, we offer visitors an authentic experience, made of flavors, silence and landscapes.
You can taste our wines accompanied by local products and homemade focaccias made by Valentina.
For those who want to immerse themselves in the magic of the Euganean Hills, we offer three comfortable rooms, ideal for living a stay in a warm and welcoming atmosphere, in contact with nature.
Federico Sambinello: from fashion entrepreneur to winemaker on the Euganean Hills
The word "winemaker" has a simple meaning: vineyard cultivator. But behind this definition lies a world of choices, passion and sacrifice. In recent years, more and more people have rediscovered this figure, intertwining it with concepts of craftsmanship and authenticity. Among those who have undertaken this path with determination is Federico Sambinello, founder of Cà Vendalis, who after 27 years in the luxury fashion sector has decided to change his life and dedicate himself completely to the production of wine on the Euganean Hills.
"I think that today it is necessary to be a bit of a winemaker and a bit of an entrepreneur. You can't neglect the agricultural aspect, because it is the heart of our work, but at the same time you need to have an entrepreneurial vision to be able to make known and valorize what we produce. It is a challenge that requires a balance between tradition and innovation."
"Without a doubt, the bureaucracy was the biggest obstacle. For the rest, everything is complex and tiring, but when something is a passion, every difficulty becomes a challenge that makes you feel alive. And this new path has given me back incredible energy."
"For me it was almost like the birth of a child. After all the work, the difficulties and the waiting, holding her in my hands was a moment of pure emotion. It was the concrete proof that my dream was becoming a reality."
"It's a path I chose alone, but always shared with my wife Valentina. I don't come from a family of winemakers, but I felt the need to build something of my own, a project that had a deep and authentic meaning."
"Absolutely yes, I fully recognize myself in this definition. The role of the winemaker, for me, is that of the craftsman, a custodian of tradition and of the territory. Each step is taken care of with attention, the harvest is done by hand, and the production is deliberately limited. We started with 8,000 bottles and at full capacity I do not want to exceed 12,000. This allows me to maintain high quality and create wines that tell the story of my territory and my philosophy."
"Absolutely yes. I don't want to deny tradition, but I believe that only with the most technological methods can we produce excellent wines. My wines reflect me: they are structured, with character, but at the same time fresh, perfect to drink on any occasion."
"It's a way to bring people closer to the world of wine in a concrete and personal way. We offer the possibility of adopting a row of Merlot Raggio Fiorito or Glera Alito di Vento (Prosecco DOC). Those who adopt a row can follow its vegetative cycle, come to the vineyard to see first-hand the work between the rows and, at the end, receive the bottles produced with the grapes from their own vineyard. It's an exciting experience, which allows you to feel part of the production process."
"Exactly! I want people to not just drink a bottle, but to understand all the work, passion and time that goes into it. Wine is history, territory, care. With "Adotta un Filare" I want to give people the chance to experience all this first hand."
"Because I want to give people a complete experience, where wine is the protagonist but in the company of high-quality products from our territory. It's not just about selling a bottle, but about creating a bond between those who taste my wine and the land where it is born."
"Yes, of course! I have always been used to carrying out multiple projects at the same time. After many years as an entrepreneur, I know that diversification is essential. And then I am an enthusiast: I like to build, develop, create new opportunities."
"My main project is to ensure that Cà Vendalis is recognized for the quality of its products. After wine and oil, I want to expand production with new gastronomic excellences, such as an artisanal vegetable giardiniera. Then, who knows... the beauty of this journey is that ideas are born along the way."
"I would like it to become a point of reference for those looking for authentic and high-quality products, but also a place where people can have a unique experience among vineyards, olive groves and local flavours. A place to stop, taste and feel at home."
