People: Pierpaolo, Alba & Alessandro Pecorari, Owners & Winemakers


The winery of Pierpaolo Pecorari is a typical Friuli farm, located on the plateau of Micro Terrazzo in the Isonzo wine growing region. Only nine miles from the Adriatic sea and 15 miles south of the Julien Alps. The winery is run by Pierpaolo, his wife Alba and their son Alessandro. It is 40 years ago that Pierpaolo planted his first vineyard of Malvasia, over looking the right bank of the Isonzo River. Like his father before him, he continues to cultivate his vineyards with the most traditional care and very naturally, with no use of chemicals and herbicides. The poor, stony and mineral soil was formed millions of years ago during the Quaternary period from the melting glaciers. Soil of the Gods, near perfect; producing wines that are known and appreciated worldwide for their purity, elegance, minerality and freshness. Complex wines, extremely pleasant to drink and absolutely great when pairing with food.

Reviews
Pierpaolo Pecorari 2012 Refosco, Venezia Giulia IGT
Rating: 87

The 2012 Refosco is a raw and informal rendition that shows the straight and crispy lines of this indigenous grape. Ripe fruit and dark spice pop brightly. Smooth, sweet fruit flavors appear on the close. This food-friendly red has all the informal appeal of a successful house wine at your favorite neighborhood trattoria.
