Ca 'dei Frati has been known since 1782, as attested by a document that refers to "a house with a cellar located in Lugana in the keep of Sermion called the place of the Friars".

In 1939, Felice Dal Cero, son of Domenico, already a winemaker in Montecchia di Crosara in the Verona area, moved to this house in Lugana di Sirmione and immediately felt the great wine vocation of the area. In 1969, after thirty years of work in the vineyard and in the cellar, his son Pietro took part in the birth of the Doc and started bottling his first Lugana under the Casa dei Frati label, later called Ca 'dei Frati. In 2012 Pietro Dal Cero passed away, leaving his cultural legacy to his wife Santa Rosa and his sons Igino, Gian Franco and Anna Maria, who continue to run the company with the same passion and determination. The grapes from each vineyard are vinified separately in order to obtain the best expression of their "terroir". The winemaking process is carried out with the greatest respect for the raw material, using an innovative technique that has been refined over the years and that allows us to obtain wines that are intact and long-lasting.
