The history of Pizzato family is synonymous with the history of wine in Brazil. In 1880 the family emigrated from the Veneto region of Italy to Southern Brazil and brought with them the grand tradition of winemaking. Since then, the Pizzato family has been growing grapes and making wine.
Vale dos Vinhedos (state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil), is 930 mi south of the beaches of Rio de Janeiro.
At PIZZATO they believe the vineyard makes the wine. For this reason, all the grapes are grown exclusively in their two estate vineyards; Pizzato Vineyards in Vale dos Vinhedos and Dr. Fausto Vineyards in Serra Gaúcha, and the vines are meticulously managed and cared for by highly skilled vineyard team using traditional principles and modern day technology.
