Terre Lazzaroni was founded in 2009 when the Lazzaroni family purchased a few hectares of land in Buttrio, Friuli Venezia Giulia located in the northeast of Italy. The initial purpose was to source wood for personal use, little did they know, there were some hidden vines scattered throughout the land they purchased, waiting to be discovered. There is incredible care behind each bottle and low yields warrant for a tiny production of bottles. The family’s profound respect for the land and environment is demonstrated in the minimal use of chemicals and a natural wine cultivation philosophy.
