Azienda Agricola Mario Schiopetto s.s. is one of the oldest wine estates in the Collio area.
In the rolling hills in Capriva del Friuli, in the province of Gorizia, Mario Schiopetto has been making wine since 1965 and his children Maria Angela, Carlo and Giorgio are delighted to carry on the family tradition.
Sensations, experience and tradition.
These are the elements linking three generations with the same passion for the earth, vines and wine - good wine that bears witness to the uniqueness of the area and the people who make it.
The Schiopetto family's 30 hectares (75 acres) of vineyards cover the fertile estate surrounding the former residence of the Bishop of Gorizia in Capriva del Friuli, and Podere dei Blumeri, in Oleis, not far from Capriva in the Rosazzo hills that form part of the Eastern Hills of Friuli.
The Schiopetto family has been in the wine business for three generations. Giorgio Schiopetto, who owned Ai Pompieri, a famous old inn in Udine, passed on to his son Mario his love of good wines, which was to bring him renown as the founding father of modern wine-making in the Friuli region.
Before turning to wine making, Mario travelled far and wide in Europe in search of quality wines in the famed German and French wine cellars. And it was German technology blended with French finesse that enabled him to realize his dream. During his travels abroad Mario learned the art and refined methods of making excellent wines.
But skill and know-how, even when applied with passion, are not always enough. They have to be painstakingly adapted to a different environment and climate - a different region with a unique terrain like that of the Collio Goriziano area.
Self-taught and gifted with exceptional intuition, Mario Schiopetto launched into the wine business in 1965 when he rented from the clergy in Gorizia an old company that he later purchased in 1989.
He promptly converted it into a shining example of simplicity, technology and
sensitivity. Here he enhanced and developed the know-how and skills he had acquired during his travels abroad, invaluable experience that he passed down to his children Maria Angela, Carlo and Giorgio, who successfully run the company today. |
