Zorzettig, a name linked to for generations to the winemaking activity of the Friulian land. Once farmers and then owners of lands, to come to the three brothers Livio, Francesco and Giuseppe, who founded in the mid–80s three companies, continuing separately the common path in the world of wine. Giuseppe gave his name to the Zorzettig Cav. Giuseppe farming company that covers the hills of Spessa, a few kilometers from the Longobardic town of Cividale, in the heart of the eastern Hills of Friuli.
The passion and energy of Giuseppe and Antonietta, tireless wife and mother as well as company’s cornerstone, were handed down to their children Roberto, Annalisa and Alessandro, together with the desire to continue to ride the way of love for the land. Many are the innovations introduced during these years, from the innovative vinification techniques to a modern equipment, all actions characterized by the respect for the values of the tradition and the constant pursuit of quality.
The untimely death of Roberto, who guided the company’s technical choices, gave way to Alessandro and Annalisa, who now deal with the agronomic part, the first, of the production and the sales network, the second.
The support in the cellar is assured by Fabio Coser.
The wines of Zorzettig, the result of selected grapes from vineyards owned harvested exclusively by hand, are vinified and aged in the ancient underground wine cellar and in the adjacent barrel room. The production of Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC wines, white and red grape varieties, both local and international, is of about eight hundred thousand bottles year round.
