Le Vigne di Zamò

Le Vigne di Zamò is a family owned winery located in Manzano, one of the most renewed winegrowing areas in Friuli Venezia Giulia. Brothers Pierluigi and Silvano Zamò inherited the estate from their father Tullio, and together with Brigitte, SIlvano’s wife, have made Le Vigne di Zamò one of the greatest names of the area, and the first winery from Friuli to win the “Tre Bicchieri del Gambero Rosso” award for a red wine, Ronco dei Roseti, in 1988. Along with the traditional white varieties that dominate the hills of Friuli Colli Orientali — such as Ribolla Gialla, Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio — Le Vigne di Zamò is one of the few wineries of this area with 40% of the production focused on red indigenous varieties, some of them very rare, such as Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso and Schioppettino.

The 2021 harvest will be the first that is organic certified for the winery, although they have always been focused on sustainability both in the vineyards and the cellar. Zamò also produces an orange wine, with no additional sulfites, no filtration, aged in amphorae, and is 100% natural and sustainable.
