From this winery

• Start up year: 1986
• Oenologist: Saverio Di Giacomo
• Bottles produced: 800.000
• Hectares: 115

The Zorzettig Winery is located in the Colli Orientali del Friuli area, sheltered behind by the Julian Alps, which form a barrier against the cold currents of the north, and influenced by the Adriatic sea, which mitigates and acts as a temperature controller.

Despite having over a century, the Zorzettig Winery has been continuously renewed both in the vineyard, improving the attention for environmental respect and with the redevelopment of native vineyards, both in production and bottling techniques.

110 hectares planted on soils of marls and sandstones of Eocene origin formed 50 million years ago from the seabed, which produce from the Classic line to the Myò: elegant and reliable wines, and wines from selected grapes of the best rows.

The pedoclimatic environment, the structure and the passion of generations of the family, characterize this serious and important company. Read more
