Monica Vettor, Donna del Vino Fvg

Love for the land, safeguarding the wine-growing landscape that represents a cultural heritage of great value.
“Women, Wine, Culture” is the theme of the year 2024 that encapsulates the values of the Donne del Vino.

The starting concept is inspired by the ‘etymology of the word culture, feminine singular, Latin derivation colere, to cultivate. Hence, the totality of intellectual cognitions that a person has acquired through study and experience, reworking them with a personal and profound rethinking so as to convert the notions from mere erudition into a constituent element of her moral personality, her spirituality, her aesthetic taste, in short in her awareness of herself and her world.

The image depicts an elegant, refined, and wise woman who, in perfect balance, seems to hold up and support our theme for the year; the headdress recalls the berry, connecting the woman and her thoughts with the world of wine; the elegant dress with plant motifs recalls the connection, as old as decorum and harmony with nature and landscape. The open arms are also an omen and welcome to all women who wish to be part of our world.

Monica Vettor has been a member of the Associazione Donne del Vino Fvg since 2002 and, together with fellow women producers, contributes to the development of the wine sector in the region.
