STORIE DI VINI E VITICOLTORI
On La Castellada hill, in Oslavia, in the province of Gorizia, less than five kilometers from the border with Slovenia, stands the homonymous winery La Castellada whose history has its roots at the end of the Second World War.

To establish a date of the connection between the Pecorari family and viticulture in the Isonzo valleys, near Gorizia, in Friuli Venezia Giulia, just 10 kilometers from the border with Slovenia, we have to go back to 1879.

The area of Terlano began to produce wine at least in the 6th century B.C. as it dates back to that time a characteristic vine pruning billhook, very similar to those still used in those areas, in the sub-area “Siebenheich/Settequerce”. On the other hand, this was a particularly well-suited area, as knew the large landowners who held its monopoly in the 19th century. Just to escape this monopoly, a group of 24 small winegrowers founded, in 1893, the Cantina Sociale di Terlano, a cooperative winery that, over time, has expanded to count, today, 143 members who cultivate 190 hectares of vineyards, with the help of oenologist Rudi Kofler, and the supervision of President Georg Eyrl.
