From this winery
  • Start up year: 1987
  • Oenologist: Enrico Paternoster
  • Bottles produced: 450.000
  • Hectares: 98
An ancient building in Capriva del Friuli in the heart of the Collio wine-growing area was initially used as a stately home, then in 1987 when the Pali family bought the property with the attached vineyards, the Spessa Castle winery was founded.

During these years, the various extensions, the renovation of the vineyard park and the construction of the new wine cellar led the owner Loreto Pali to create a respectable winery. In 2104, with the arrival in the cellar of Trentino oenologist Enrico Paternoster, the relaunch of production began, now divided into three lines: Eccellenza del Conte, only wines for long ageing, then the two classic DOC Collio and Isonzo: the former complex and compact in structure, the latter ambitious and pleasant to sip.
