    Winery Overview

    The Candoni De Zan family has a rich wine-making history that began over 150 years ago. The tradition continues with Armando De Zan and Elviana Candoni, who both share a passion for wine and a tenacious belief in working exclusively for quality. Both the De Zan and the Candoni families have been involved in winemaking since the late 1800s. A culture built around quality and integrity was established by their forefathers and continued by successive generations. Over the generations both families gradually acquired large viticulture terrains in their respective regions. Following in this tradition, and as part of their long-term plan to enrich their holding, Elviana and Armando purchased the Tenuta Polvaro Estate in Veneto, in addition to vineyards located in other regions. The labels and packaging, which convey the artistic spirit that Elviana inherited from her father, Luigi Candoni (1921 – 1974) – graphic artist, early exponent of avant-garde theatre and prolific dramatist, after whom the widely respected and internationally acclaimed “Candoni Award” is named. He was the first in Italy to translate and represent the works of Tennessee Williams, Tankred Dorst, Eugène Ionesco, and Samuel Beckett. Luigi Candoni also founded two theater companies and a magazine called “Teatro Orazero.” A museum has been dedicated to him in his hometown in Carnia, near Udine. Armando and Elviana’s daughters, Barbara and Caterina, have inherited their parent’s passion and now work alongside their parents in continuing their family’s winemaking traditions and success. Barbara and Caterina are both Certified Sommeliers. Barbara also has a degree in Business Administration, while Caterina’s degree is in Foreign Languages (German and French). Both women help in various aspects of the business but focus on sales, especially in the US and other international markets. Candoni makes both conventional and Certified Organic wines. Organic Merlot, Pinot Grigio, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir are Certified Organic. In addition to making organic wine, another environmental initiative is a 9+ year-long partnership between Candoni and nonprofit Arbor Day Foundation to plant trees for Arbor Day. Since the start of the Arbor Day partnership, Candoni Wines has helped plant over 40,000 trees in the U.S. (and counting!). In 2021, Candoni launched Ricco Wines with Regal. Ricco means Rich in Italian, and this collection is rich, sweet, and seductively fruity with intense all-natural berries, peach, cherry, and mango flavors. These sweet, fruit-infused wines are made with estate-grown Moscato grapes. The wines are Vegan and Gluten Free and are delicious on their own or perfect for creating cocktails and sangria.

    Viticulture

    The grapes are selected from low yielding vineyards on stony soils in the Southern part of Italy, in the area of Puglia, in order to gain the extra ripeness necessary for this style of wine. Picked by hand, the organically grown grapes were then cold macerated for 4 days, and then coolly fermented for 7-14 days.

    Vinification

    Vinification is carried out in a very traditional manner, at a controlled temperature of 68° with pumping musts and wine crushing dregs for over 10 - 12 days. The racking and decanting process then follows for the clearing of the wine.
