CA' DI RAJO

A stone's throw from the river Piave, in the fertile Treviso countryside, in Rai di San Polo di Piave, is the Ca' di Rajo winery (Rajo is the ancient name of Rai). A history of winemakers linked to the territory by a double thread. 

The farm is surrounded by 90 hectares of vineyards, an ancient church dating back to 1300 and an ancient tower of the tenth century, the Torre si Rai.

The winery, led by the Cecchetto family, is committed to enhancing the value of the local people and safeguarding the Bellussere, an ancient method of vine cultivation and a unique example of landscape architecture. This form of vine cultivation was developed at the end of the 19th century. 

It provides for a large sixth planting where wooden poles of about 4 meters in height are connected by iron wires arranged in rays. Developed mainly in the Veneto, the Bellussera is now in danger of extinction because of its high maintenance costs: from pruning to harvesting, everything is done by hand, on a raised floor.

Among the productions of Ca' di Rajo there are: Prosecco Superiore Millesimato Docg Valdobbiadene in Brut and Extra Dry versions, Prosecco Doc Treviso, Malanotte Docg, Raboso Piave Doc, Manzoni Bianco 6.0.13, Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot. 

To these are added Marzemina Bianca and Manzoni Rosa (obtained by pollination between Traminer and Trebbiano), very rare autochthonous wines that only Ca' di Rajo makes sparkling wine .
