But his reputation took off when in 2007, the winery passed exclusively into his hands. The famous Azienda Agricola Prà marked the new era of the Mondarina area of Valpolicella and the careful production and management of exclusively local varieties, underlined its desire to always make beautiful, proud wines, with a strong body and punch.

Graziano's philosophy is not to interfere with his wine, just to guide it to become great! So he did at Valpolicella Ripasso Agricola Pra, where he led the varieties Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Oseleta to ferment with their lees and stay in 900-liter barrels for 12 months and then in smaller 20-liter barrels for another 2. This was enough to create a wine with volume, and tremendous complexity, but still strong forest fruity aromas.
