The unswerving dedication of the Gallo family to vineyards and wines, dating back over a century, is rooted in the labour and determination of family members such as Basilio, Stelio, Gianfranco and their relatives.

Gianfranco, who has managed the estate since 1978, introduced radical and far-reaching viticultural programmes and has devoted painstaking attention to winemaking practices; these initiatives have given the stamp of unique personality to the wines of Vie di Romans over the last 40 years.

There were a number of important steps in this historic process. 1978 saw the first bottling and label on the market, followed by vineyard reorganization aiming at improving quality in 1982; in 1989 the new three-storey winery building was erected. Wines from distinct vineyards were produced separately beginning in 1990, and in 1992, with the release of the 1990 vintage, the custom was established of releasing all whites a full two years after harvest.

Gallo 家族對葡萄園與葡萄酒的堅定投入已延續 一個多世紀。這份傳承源於家族成員 Basilio、Stelio、Gianfranco 以及其他家族成員的辛勤耕耘與不懈努力。

自 1978 年起由 Gianfranco Gallo 接手管理酒莊後，他推動了一系列深遠的葡萄園改革計畫，並以極為嚴謹的態度投入釀酒工藝。正是這些努力，使羅馬大道酒莊在過去 40 年間形成了鮮明而獨特的風格。

在這段發展歷程中，酒莊也經歷了多個重要里程碑。1978 年推出首款裝瓶並正式上市的葡萄酒；1982 年開始重新規劃葡萄園，以提升葡萄品質；1989 年建造了新的三層酒莊建築。自 1990 年起，不同葡萄園的葡萄開始分開釀造；而在 1992 年推出 1990 年份葡萄酒時，酒莊確立了一項重要傳統——所有白葡萄酒皆在採收後兩年才正式上市。

這些決定塑造了羅馬大道酒莊對品質與時間的堅持，也讓其葡萄酒展現出深刻而純粹的風土個性。

The Harmony of Nature, Viticulture, and Human Vision

自然、栽培與人的和諧共生

​

Great wines are never the result of a single element, but rather the outcome of a complex interaction between environment, viticulture, and human vision. Climate, soil, and the natural conditions of a place shape the potential of the vineyard, providing the foundation upon which great grapes can grow. Careful viticultural decisions—from vineyard management to harvest timing—guide the vines toward balance and quality. Yet at the center of this entire process stands the winemaker, whose understanding of the land and respect for nature transform these elements into a wine with identity and character.

Through this constant dialogue between man and nature, the vineyard gradually reveals its voice. The role of the winemaker is not to dominate the land, but to listen to it, interpret it, and patiently guide its expression. When environment, viticulture, and human intention come together in harmony, the result is a wine that transcends technique and becomes a true reflection of place. Such wines capture the complexity, authenticity, and beauty of the landscape from which they are born.

偉大的葡萄酒從來不是單一因素所能成就，而是自然環境、葡萄栽培與人的理念之間複雜而微妙的交互作用。氣候、土壤與地理條件構成了葡萄園的基礎，為優質葡萄的誕生提供了最初的潛力。而在葡萄生長的過程中，從葡萄園管理到採收時機的選擇，每一個栽培決策都影響著葡萄的平衡與品質。然而，在這一切背後，最核心的角色始終是人——釀酒者以對土地的深刻理解與對自然的尊重，將這些元素轉化為具有個性與靈魂的葡萄酒。

在人與土地持續的對話之中，葡萄園逐漸展現出屬於自己的聲音。釀酒者的角色並非征服自然，而是傾聽、理解並引導風土的表達。

當 自然環境、栽培技藝與人的智慧在和諧之中結合時，葡萄酒便不再只是技術的成果，而成為土地精神的真實呈現。這樣的酒承載著產地的風景與時間的痕跡，展現出深度、複雜度與純粹的真實之美。
