ITALO CESCON
Italo Cescon is one of Veneto's most recognisable family-owned wineries, renowned for producing elegant wines that celebrate the rich winemaking heritage of north-eastern Italy. Founded in 1957 by Italo Cescon in the Piave region, the winery has become famous not only for its high-quality wines but also for its distinctive labels adorned with hand-tied vine branches, a tradition that symbolises the estate's close connection to the vineyard.
Located between the Dolomite Mountains and the Adriatic Sea, the Piave region enjoys a favourable climate with warm days, cool nights, and excellent ventilation. Fertile alluvial soils deposited by the Piave River create ideal conditions for cultivating both indigenous and international grape varieties, producing wines with vibrant fruit, freshness, and balance.
Italo Cescon produces a diverse portfolio that includes Pinot Grigio, Prosecco, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Raboso Piave, and Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso. The Pinot Grigio is crisp and refreshing with notes of pear, citrus, green apple, and white flowers, while the Prosecco offers lively bubbles with aromas of apple, peach, and delicate floral characters. The red wines display flavours of black cherry, plum, spice, herbs, and soft tannins, combining approachable fruit with classic Veneto elegance.
The winery follows a philosophy that combines traditional family values with modern winemaking techniques. Sustainable vineyard management, careful fruit selection, temperature-controlled fermentation, and gentle handling preserve varietal purity while expressing the character of the Piave terroir.
Over more than six decades, Italo Cescon has built a strong international reputation for consistency, quality, and innovation. The winery exports to markets around the world and continues to represent the diversity of Veneto through a range of wines suited to both everyday enjoyment and fine dining.
Today, Italo Cescon remains one of Italy's respected family producers, crafting wines that combine regional authenticity, approachable style, and outstanding value while honouring the traditions established by its founder.
