Azienda Agricola Monica Vettor

Monica Vettor’s story is intertwined with the history of Friuli Grave DOC, which is a territory steeped in expressiveness, culture and memory, with respect and dedication. The land in which her vineyards grow is of alluvial origin and was formed with the dolomitic limestone deposits that the rivers Cellina, Meduna and Tagliamento have been carrying down the neighbouring mountains and into the Friulian plains over millennia, creating a particularly stark and evocative landscape in the process. A truly unique terroir that Monica Vettor brings fully to the fore in her Prosecco Rosé, Pinot Grigio and new Grappa that can be considered different facets of the same pursuit of excellence. The team that is helping her tell the story of the uniqueness of her vision is entirely female, and they all take a part in creating The Essence of Feminine Wine by Monica Vettor with their individual experiences and skills. The farm cultivates the vineyards according to integrated pest management regulations. Under the rows, the grass is cut mechanically. Most of the work is performed manually, including the grape harvest. The property owns an 80-year-old Merlot vineyard, and some of the vineyards are located at an altitude of 250 metres above sea level on the gorge of the Cellina stream in an alpine climate.
