ELEGANCE, AUTHENTICITY, CHARACTER
These are the wines we love: balanced in aromas and tannins thanks to the important temperature ranges that the terroir of Prepotto, situated on the Colli Orientali del Friuli, offers during the ripening phase of the grapes.
Here is where Migale, Serika and Schioppettino di Prepotto are born.
Our philosophy
Our identity can be broken down into essential elements, refined and balanced, which reflect the essence of three great wines, delicious by their very nature.
The story of a dream
Everything started with one man, and his great dream of creating traditional red wines from Friuli Venezia Giulia able to compete with prestigious labels. From a precious heritage characterised by the ancient wine varieties we watch over, we have managed to create three extraordinary interpretations of the territory.
The grapes
Schioppettino, Tazzelenghe and Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso
These are the three red varieties, dating from the 19th century, that we cultivate in the hilly area of Prepotto, in the heart of Colli Orientali del Friuli. All the varieties have perfectly acclimatised to the place, developing unique, distinctive characteristics.

The wine cellar
The wine cellar is a special place where we take care of the next vintages, searching for the perfect balance. The wine, depending on the type and the vintage, is aged slowly in French oak barriques and tonneaux, before finishing its aging in wooden casks.

The place
Our rows of vines are positioned on a gentle hill, facing an enchanting valley with the Judrio River flowing through it. Right from the beginning, we were fascinated by the beauty and history of this land: five hectares of only native vines, planted by expert hands, which we look after today in order to pass them on to those who come along after us.
The vineyard
We are committed to cultivating grapes according to the methods of organic production, respecting the environment, and keeping the organic layer of the ground and the characteristics of the vintage alive. Weeding is carried out by simply cutting the grass, without the use of weedkillers or desiccants.
