The reputation — the story that sells at the table
Dorigo's Pignolo Vigneto Montsclapade is considered Italy's definitive Pignolo expression — a wine of extraordinary tannin, acidity, and complex dark fruit that ages for 20+ years. The estate's role in preserving near-extinct Friulian indigenous varieties has been recognised by Slow Food and international critics alike.
Practice
Girolamo Dorigo was one of the pioneers of the Colli Orientali's revival — farming the Montsclapade estate since 1966, producing some of Friuli's earliest estate-bottled wines. The estate's Pignolo (a nearly extinct Friulian indigenous red variety) and Schioppettino are considered the finest expressions of these varieties available anywhere.
