The story of Berta
The legend tells that in 1084 Henry IV of Germany and his wife, Bertha of Savoy, were guests of the
Ladies of Montagnon (the ancient medieval Montegrotto). During this visit a poor spinner,by the name
of Berta presented herself to the Queen,asking for clemency for her imprisoned husband.
As poor as she was beautiful,she offered a skein of her yarn to the Queen. The Queen was so taken by
this girl that she granted freedom to her husband end bestoweb has much land as could be enclosed by
that skein of yarn to the young spinner.
Soon, the word spreed of this gracious gesture, and many others tried to obtain the same favour, but
the Queen replied with the famous saynis "The time of Berta‘s spinning as passed"

Twentyfive years ago Adolfo and Emma Turlon decided to begin a long trip among the tastes
and the typical flavour of their places, the land born from Colli Euganei. Since the family Turlon
manages the Weinstube Colle Berta, they rigorously pay attention to the tradition and use only typical
wines D.o.c., that its are very distant from the industrial mega-productions and from the chemical
pesticidis that have contaminated the ancient art of the wine.
From the care of the land, from the love for the vineyard every year the good wines Turlon are born ,
entirely sold in the Weinstube, to preserve its famous exclusiveness.
And also the personnel connects again him to the tradition: they will be the children of Adolfo and Emma,
children of this trip, to serve you and to accompany you in your voyage enogastronomico, with the
preparation and the gentleness that it traditionally countersigns this family, been born to the
slopes of the hills.
