From this winery
  • Start up year: 1988
  • Oenologist: Damijan Podversic
  • Bottles produced: 32.000
  • Hectares: 10
On mount Calvario there were some old, abandoned vines and I started to buy up some small plots of land.

Today on these lands we have the most important vinyards, six hectares planted with ribolla gialla, malvasia, friulano, merlot e cabernet sauvignon.

We have another half hectare at San Floriano, planted with chardonnay, which was part of my grandfather’s holding. We have a further two hectares rented at Gradiscutta with chardonnay, malvasia e friulano. For the past twenty years we’ve had at Piedimonte another one and half hectares with friulano, chardonnay e malvasia.
