The winery of Azienda Vigneti Pittaro was founded by the tradition of vinegrowers who have a four centuries old story. Currently, the company covers almost 80 hectares fo vine rows, of the typical varieties of the Grave area of Friuli, for a production of 8,000 hectoliters of wine that are commercialized all over the world.
For the first time in Friuli a winery has been built with traditional materials and with the entire roof made of wood. There are more or less 3,500 square meters of covering with a building perfectly integrated with the territory, with two lateral wings that make it similar to a big plane, like an American Galaxy.
The interior is built with cutting edge techniques with barrels made of stainless steel only, wooden barrels and barriques, a cooling plant and a bottling plant.
Another winery, a few hundred meters far and surrounded by a thick park, is the seat of the aging of the classic method sparkling wine, where an average of 200,000 bottles of valuable talent, which are the honor and the pride of the Italian sparkling wine production are left to age. The white wines are Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Sauvignon and Friulian Tocai. The red wines are Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso and Agresto. Two points of strength are Brut Classico Talento and Brut Classico Talento Millesimato.
White wines present themselves as fresh, fruity, elegant, without tiring palates with too marked, strong scents and aromas.
The red wines are harmonious, full–bodied, scented when Young and of full and structured taste if they are aged. If, on the one hand, many different varieties of wine exist, on the other hand we have to recognize that the cultived types present their own features that distinguish them.
In the Grave area of Friuli, as in the entire Friulian winemaking, wine bears the name of the vine from which it is produced.
