Born in Turin in 1969, Igor Boccardo joined Genagricola 1851 as Chief Executive Officer in September 2019. He brings extensive experience as a marketing and sales manager and general manager, gained exclusively at leading multinational companies in the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector, including Henkel, Unilever, and Deoleo.

Leone Alato coordinates a range of activities, from wine production to the marketing of wines and spirits, from grain and seed production to forestry, and even includes energy production from renewable sources. It also handles marketing, through both direct and indirect channels, which it oversees through two subsidiaries: one in the U.S. (Leone Alato Wine & Spirits) and one in China (Sinodrink).
Within the Group, the following two main entities deserve special mention:

• LeTenute del Leone Alato SpA, the Group’s wine-making division, comprising several brands representing some of the country’s most renowned wine-growing regions (Torre Rosazza in the Colli Orientali del Friuli, Bricco dei Guazzi in Piedmont, Costa Arente in Valpolicella, V8+ and Tenuta Sant’Anna in the Prosecco region)
• Genagricola 1851 SpA, which cultivates and manages over 14,000 hectares of farmland in Italy and Romania
