Because remaining in Leverano, south Italy, in 1959, meant skydiving without a parachute. Going in blind to start a revolution to emulate in the future. They were 44, all men and two women. Small landowners, farmers, teachers and a priest. They were able to make a group, and they delivered the possible unanimous dream of the Cantina Sociale Cooperativa Leverano.
Today that dream is a rich production company that aims to generate wealth and produces 3,5 million bottles a year with a turnover that exceeds 18 million euros, and 1100 members.
