Borgo Conventi

Borgo Conventi is a historic company on the Friuli wine scene.

The estate spreads over 30 hectares of vineyards, of which 20 on the prestigious hills of the Controlled Denomination of Origin Collio area and 10 in the alluvial plain of the Controlled Denomination of Origin Isonzo area.

Founded in 1975 by Gianni Vescovo, Borgo Conventi owes its name to a legend according to which Rizzardo di Strassoldo, the feudal lord of the area, donated a plot of land to the Dominican Fathers, who built a convent there.

The estate produces Friuli white and red wines. It is among the most state-of-the-art wineries, having always concentrated a lot of effort into the care of the vineyards and the final product.

With the purchase of the estate in April 2019 by the Moretti Polegato family, the care of the vineyard became even more important.

Aware that the future depends on sustainability and environmental protection, the property has converted all the vineyards of the estate to the procedures with low environmental impact obtaining the “Biodiversity Friend” certification.

The philosophy of Borgo Conventi is to produce wines of recognizable geographical identity and high varietal expression, seeking elegance and balance between structure and pleasantness.

Each bottle tells a story of refined quality, tradition and passion.
