Four generations for grappa, to create the very modern Berta di Roccanivo distillery in Casalotto di Mombaruzzo, four generations that began on 11 July 1866 with the birth of Francesco Berta. It was the time when Rome was not yet the capital, when the Expedition of the Thousand had just ended and Vittorio Emanuele II was still King of Italy. It was the time of simplicity and rural life, of sacrifice and respect for traditions. Francesco Berta, as in all peasant families, has worked in the vineyards and in the cellar since he was a child, and with foresight and audacity, as soon as he grows up he looks around in search of customers to sell his product. At twenty-two he married Erminia Barbero and from their union Giovanni was born in 1889 and Michele in 1905. In compliance with the peasant tradition, which advised not to divide the property, Francesco decides to entrust the work he has undertaken to his firstborn Giovanni, while Michele is given the opportunity to study and graduate in pharmacy. In the 1930s, therefore, Michele opened a pharmacy in Milan, while Giovanni continued his father's work, which was continued and increased by his son Paolo, with the foundation of the first distillery in Nizza Monferrato in 1947.
