Six generations of the Zorzettig family have tended their vineyards in the Friuli region since 1874. They currently have 100 hectares, with their vineyards nestled in the eastern hills (Colli Orientali) just outside the UNESCO heritage town of Cividale del Friuli.
Committed to sustainability, biodiversity, and integrated farming, the Zorzettig estate includes wildflowers and beekeeping in its environs. Respecting the typical characteristics of each variety, the winery strives for balanced refinement and integrity in its wines.
Visitors can book accommodations at Relais La Collina for a relaxing country escape overlooking the Zorzettig vineyards and beautiful rolling hills.
