Summer reveals a different side of Modena. As the days stretch longer and the evening light settles over the city, life begins to follow a slower rhythm - one shaped by late aperitivos, familiar conversations, and the simple pleasure of having nowhere else to be.
For Schedoni, Modena is more than the place we call home. It is the culture, pace, and perspective that have shaped our approach to craftsmanship since 1880. A reminder that the best things are rarely rushed.
An Evening in Modena
Ask Simone Schedoni where summer is best experienced, and the answer is found in the details.
An aperitivo at Archivio in the Modena city centre or Wine Bar Moreali. An evening walk through Piazza Grande, where the last light reflects against the Duomo di Modena. Small rituals, repeated over time.
“Italian summer means travelling with elegance and lightness,” says Simone. “Scenic roads, time slowing down, the pleasure of driving, good company, and dinners under the stars.”
It is a philosophy that extends beyond a season as there is an appreciation for experiences that become more meaningful with time.
The Rhythm of Modena
There is a certain pace to summer in Modena.
Mornings begin quietly before the heat settles over the city, afternoons move slowly, and evenings are when Modena comes alive. Restaurants open onto historic streets, friends gather over aperitivo, and conversations continue long after the sun has set.
For Simone, the perfect summer evening might start in the city centre before moving towards the hills of the Appennino Modenese, places like Castelvetro di Modena, where winding roads, vineyards, and views across the Emilia-Romagna landscape offer a different perspective of the region.
This balance between energy and stillness has always shaped the Schedoni way of thinking: knowing when to move quickly, and when something deserves more time.
From Modena to the Road
To understand Schedoni is to understand the place it comes from.
Modena is a city of contrasts, home to some of the world’s most celebrated performance cars, yet equally defined by slow traditions: balsamic vinegar aged for decades, recipes carried through generations, and evenings built around food, conversation, and connection.
For Simone, Italian summer is exactly that: scenic roads, the pleasure of driving, good company, and dinners under the stars.
It is this feeling that travels beyond Modena, carried into every journey, wherever the road leads.
