One of Italy's Oldest Wineries

Located in the lush wine regions of Friuli Grave and Lison-Pramaggiore DOC, Principi di Porcia stands as one of Italy's oldest wineries. The estate not only produces premium wines but also adheres to traditional agricultural practices, cultivating crops such as corn, soy, barley, and silage. Visitors can enjoy the picturesque landscape, featuring walnut groves and towering poplars that enhance the beauty of the countryside.

A Rich Legacy of Over 800 Years

With a remarkable history spanning more than 800 years, Principi di Porcia has developed uniquely over the centuries. The Porcia family, comprising writers, military officials, and noble cultivators, has contributed significantly to the estate's legacy. Today, Prince Guecello leads the winery, supported by his cousins and their families. Their dedication to the vineyards and livestock reflects a deep-rooted passion for winemaking.

Sustainable Practices for Exceptional Grapes

The family-owned estate covers 840 hectares, with 143 hectares devoted to vineyards. Prince Guecello prioritizes sustainability, opting for organic farming methods over chemical use. By utilizing organic waste from livestock, rich in essential nutrients, the estate enhances soil fertility and promotes healthy grape production. The winery cultivates high-quality varieties such as Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon, Friulano, and Prosecco, alongside fruity Ribolla, Refosco, and Cabernet Franc.

For history and wine enthusiasts, Principi di Porcia offers a unique experience. Strolling through the vineyards and poplar-lined paths, tasting wines crafted using traditional methods, and learning about the rich military history of Venice are just a few highlights awaiting visitors.

Some really interesting tasting wines such as malbec and zero sugar prosecco. Congratulations also to the sommelier who guided us with exhaustive and passionate explanations. We regret not having been able to visit the location in depth but with Vinitaly just around the corner it was understandable.

I was given a package as a gift emotion3 where inside I could have a tasting with them. I didn't have the opportunity due to working hours, but I can say that through contact they still satisfied me with the shipping of their products. Thank you for your full availability and understanding! As soon as I have the chance I will come in person! Thank you

We were given a Smartbox as a gift and we used it to do a tasting at the Principi di Porcia winery. Very welcoming staff and interesting experience. Visit to the cellar, tasting of 2 wines of our choice and accompanying platter with explanation of the company and the wine. In the end we took home 3 bottles of wine
