Winery Pieropan
Characteristic
The Pieropan business was founded in 1880 in the heart of the medieval village of Soave, in the historic Palazzo Pullici. Four generations marked the history of the company, each with their own contributions which varied according to the times, knowledge and entrepreneurial attitude.
The Vineyards
In the philosophy of the Pieropan family business, their vineyard is the guarantee of true quality. The family personally manage their vineyards which exclusively feature traditional varieties. The viticulture is designed to be environmentally friendly. For several years, the company has implemented the organic farming code as a lifestyle choice to respect the local territory. The vineyards are all found in the traditional hills of Soave, featuring exposure to different altitudes. The estate includes two vineyards that are particularly characteristic due to their appearance and personality.
The Cellars
The wine cellars of the Pieropan family are the result of a successful blend of tradition and modernity. The historic winery in Soave retains a unique atmosphere of past times. Here all stages of processing take place, from the crushing of the grapes, winemaking and bottling.
