ABOUT PIERPAOLO PECORARIA

The best white wines in Italy come from the northeastern region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia (Friuli for short). They are generally fresh, minerally, delicate and very skillfully made. Producer Pierpaolo Pecorari – located just 5 kilometers from the border with Slovenia, has a clear vision and mission: to make fair and pure wines that best reflect the terroir of Friuli. The estate is located in the Isonzo DOC, in the Rive Alte sub-zone. The Pecorari family has lived on this land for many generations, first as farmers, from the 18th century also as winemakers. In the 1970s, Pierpaolo took over the helm of the family business and viticulture became the main activity. Today, the company is co-led by son Alessandro.
