rugby & beer: the unlikely beginnings
Co-founder Morris moved from UK to Italy in 2010 and joined the local rugby team shortly after. It was there that he met Andrea and they quickly became friends over a joint passion for rugby and beer. On a visit to a beer festival in Belgium, they discussed the idea of brewing beer together. Andrea has worked his entire life in vineyards but the idea of independent micro-breweries, offering experimental beer styles and changing the status quo of how companies are run, in particular by promoting sustainability and giving back to society was appealing to him. In general, wine production companies are the opposite of this with MNEs dominating the sector, with the majority them putting quantity and profits over quality. It was then we had our lightbulb moment. Why don't we take a unique approach to wine production as the independent breweries do?
That's how Attimo was born and why it is our mission to produce wine in a unique way.
