Here news, stories, and everyday moments intertwine to share together, just as Virgilio once brought his friendly voice among the vineyards of Breganze, sharing anecdotes, reflections, and curiosities observed from those and everything around him.

Virgilio Scapin, a great friend

But who is Virgilio Scapin?
Virgilio Scapin was an eclectic figure engaged as a writer, bookseller, actor, food and wine expert and Prior of the Venerable Brotherhood of Baccalà alla Vicentina.

But above all, Virgilio Scapin, who passed away on December 27, 2006, was one of the great friends of Firmino. Almost the same age as Firmino, Virgilio was born in Breganze in 1958 accompanied by his brother Franco and his father. Here came a mutual sympathy, to unite them is the joy of living in a cheerful and genuine, loving both wine and the CARDS. Virgilio frequents his friend with diligence, his Sunday tour will have for all the years to come, a single road, vicenza-breganze-vicenza, improvising often, with his sympathetic riotous character, help and moral support to sign in the work in the Vineyard.

Best friends, like brothers

I remember with the guests of the family, strolling along the vineyards he showed his knowledge of the vine, the tree of cherries or figs praising them for its tasty and unforgettable fruits. For those who have known both, one can only reflect on the diversity of the two characters: one being almost the opposite of the other. And those who knew Virgilio and Firmino in Breganze may not have absorbed the joy, the great desire to have fun with simplicity, the use of a colorful language, but not vulgar, simply easy for everyone.
