Later on the activity of the son Carlo widened and became the “class 1915” became notorious, that the new wine cellar of Riva in 1961 became famous selling throughout the whole of the world fabulousVINO SANTO TORBOLI".

After the premature disappearance of Carlo Torboli, the son Umberto with the crucial collaboration of Alvaro Pezzotti “sales director for almost 50 years” continues with his father’s activity.

Together with his wife Gabriella and his sons Carlo and Christian in 1990 the new cellar was built in Tenno, where they use new technology for production of DR Lavat di Verona, an Italian wine expert who has invented the method for producing pure wine, that is wine without any exterior pollution and without the use of additional chemicals “ sulphur dioxide” (Method).
