AZIENDA VINICOLA DE LORENZI
about us
When cultivating our vineyards, we have chosen to place sustainability at the heart of every production phase, recognizing that respect for the environment and the natural balance of the land are key to achieving an authentic and excellent product. Our commitment to sustainable agriculture translates into practices that reduce environmental impact while simultaneously improving the quality of our grapes. Low yields per hectare, combined with rigorous cultivation standards, allow us to preserve the vines’ natural characteristics, maximizing the unique characteristics of each vintage and guaranteeing high-quality wines.
Since February 3, 2026, our company has been officially recognized with the “IO SONO FVG” label, a recognition that certifies our authentic connection to the territory and the regional origin of our grapes.
For us, this represents much more than just a formal certification: it confirms a journey begun in 1973 and built on clear choices, rooted in our land and respectful of its identity.
Being part of this network means actively contributing to the promotion of Friuli Venezia Giulia through a wine that is born, grown, and expressed entirely here.

The territory
The land around us is our most precious resource, and we are committed to protecting it through innovative agronomic practices that respect the ecosystem. We adopt mechanical weeding to avoid the use of chemicals that could harm the vineyard’s biodiversity. Thanks to this approach, we preserve the flora and fauna that inhabit our land, fostering a healthy and thriving environment. Integrated pest management, another cornerstone of our philosophy, allows us to manage pests naturally, limiting the use of pesticides and maintaining the vineyard’s natural balance. Energy self-sufficiency and water reuse through our purification plant complete a production model founded on respect for the land and nature.
Water resources
Our soil, characterized by excellent drainage and water retention, allows us to grow vines without artificial irrigation, thus reducing water consumption. Furthermore, our chemical-free wastewater treatment plant allows us to recycle the water used in various production processes, minimizing waste and contributing to the environmental balance of our vineyard. This integrated approach allows us to maintain a sustainable agricultural system, in harmony with the surrounding environment.
Renewable energy
Our commitment to sustainable agriculture and production is also reflected in our use of renewable energy. The 20 kW photovoltaic system installed in our winery ensures complete energy self-sufficiency, making a tangible contribution to reducing CO2 emissions. Thanks to advanced technologies, we can monitor energy production levels and environmental impact in real time, allowing us to continuously adapt and improve our processes to minimize our ecological footprint. This system, combined with our focus on water conservation and the adoption of integrated pest management, embodies our vision of modern viticulture, which combines quality and respect for the environment.
Our production philosophy is based on ongoing research in organic winemaking, which allows us to maximize the natural characteristics of our grapes. Through the use of advanced organic processes, we optimize the transformation of raw materials, completely avoiding the use of chemical additives. The goal is to offer a genuine product that expresses the essence of the terroir and respects the integrity of the natural process. The technologies we adopt allow us to maintain high quality standards, extending the life of the wine without altering its organoleptic properties, thus offering an authentic and high-quality product.
