Paolo Rodaro, a free spirit and farmer among the hills of Cividale del Friuli (UNESCO World Heritage), not only cultivates vines but also charts new oenological paths, releasing his wines only when freshness meets the promise of complex evolution.

A guardian of time and terroir, vinifying exclusively the grapes from his estate, he infuses each bottle with his relentless pursuit of perfection, fueled by an inexhaustible curiosity and rigorous self-criticism. It’s an ode to evolution, a sensory experience nurtured by the love for nature shared with his wife Lara, the keeper of Rodaro’s energy and philosophy.

The Rodaro family’s agricultural roots stretch back to at least 1846, under Austro-Hungarian rule in Friuli Venezia Giulia, though their history as farmers surely extends much further. As independent landowners, the Rodaros have always cultivated both arable land and vineyards with dedication, becoming a point of reference for the Cividale del Friuli community. Paolo Rodaro, building upon the vineyard expertise of his uncle Edo and the business sense of his father Luigi, carries forward a family project centered on research and experimentation, placing the winery among the most forward-thinking in the area. The historic family tavern, now a cutting-edge winery, is powered by solar energy, reflecting Paolo’s deep commitment to quality and a sustainable future-a harmonious fusion of tradition and vision.
