Leading producer in Friuli Venezia Giulia of Prosecco DOC and Pinot Grigio Pitars is a indipendent winery with 164 hectares of vineyards in the three estates. Behind this vast activity is the Pittaro family, the founder of which is Romano Pittaro when back in 1880 he planted a vine of Merlot imported from France in his vineyards. But it wasn’t until the return of his son Angelo to Italy after a few years in Venezuela that a modern winery was built in the estate.
Currently, the family tradition of making wines is kept alive by the third generation of the family: Loris, Bruno, Mauro and Paolo Pittaro.
