In this On The Road Special Edition, Stevie Kim travels to the hills around Marostica in the province of Vicenza in northeastern Italy to discover the Diesel Farm estate.
Stevie sits down with Renzo Rosso, president of the Diesel fashion brand and Brave Wine, to discuss his project that saved the area from future building exploitation.
Stevie chats about how growing up on a farm affected Renzo’s life and his decision to enter the fashion industry, becoming one of the leading figures in his sector.
Stevie also explores the Diesel business model that led to the acquisition of various fashion houses and wonders if this approach also applies to the wine project, exploring the similarities and differences between the two worlds.
Finally, Stevie and Renzo discuss inclusion and innovation and how his project is providing opportunities for young people in the wine business, and how he hopes to leave a legacy of a circular business model that gives back to the community.
