Full description
Winning over the heart of the Colli Orientali del Friuli has never been easier (and no, that’s not just a figure of speech) !
There are places where wine isn’t just tasted, but tells its own story: welcome to Vigna Traverso, a wine-making gem in Prepotto, literally carved out of the rock of the hillside. Here, amidst 55 hectares of unspoilt nature and lush woodland, lie vineyards tended with artisanal passion.
An experience where you’ll discover how stainless steel, concrete and oak barrels safeguard the raw material, transforming it into wines that reflect the authentic soul of the land – an experience that will conclude with a tasting!
What we will do
The event will take place at the selected time at Vigna Traverso in Prepotto (UD), the capital of the Colli Orientali del Friuli.
We’ll be welcomed by our guide, who’ll take us on a tour of a winery carved into the hillside and set amongst 55 hectares of land, mostly woodland, 18 of which are planted with vines.
Weather permitting, we’ll start with a walk through the vineyards, before heading into the winemaking area and the ageing cellar, where the wines rest in steel, concrete and barriques. We’ll discover an artisanal production method that focuses on the selection and enhancement of the raw ingredients, to produce wines that fully reflect the terroir.
From the barrique cellar, we’ll head up to the panoramic room, where a large window overlooks the vineyards: this is where the wine tasting will take place, accompanied by a platter of cold cuts and cheeses.
Depending on the option chosen , we will taste 5 wines ( two whites, two reds and a sweet wine) or 3 wines selected by the winery, including, of course, the famous Schioppettino di Prepotto.
The experience will last approximately one and a half hours in total.

The wine tasting is for adults only. Any accompanying minors or non-drinkers may take part in the experience at a reduced price of €5. 00.
