A Heritage of Vineyards and Distinctive Wines

The Val di Neto area, located near Crotone, is renowned for producing some of Calabria's most celebrated PDO and PGI wines. This region has a rich viticultural history that dates back to ancient times when Crotone, known as Kroton, was a prominent city in Magna Grecia.

At La Pizzuta del Principe, our goal is to craft exceptional PDO and PGI wines that honor the native grape varieties integral to our heritage. We focus on preserving ancient traditions while showcasing the unique flavors and aromas that our land offers. Our vineyards span 13 hectares, featuring indigenous grapes such as Pecorello, Gaglioppo, Greco Nero, and Magliocco Canino. We are proud to have completed our transition to organic farming, with all wines from the 2017 harvest now certified organic.

We invite you to visit our beautiful villa, where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Ionian Sea while savoring our exquisite wines.
