About Plozza
Brand Story
The story of Plozza Vini begins on March 19, 1919. A 29-year-old Rhaetian Railway employee gets out of a train in Tiefencastel and laboriously rolls a 50-liter wine barrel over a ramp. Pietro Plozza tries to sell the wine by the liter to hotels, shops and private individuals. In the following years Pietro Plozza built wineries in Brusio and Tirano. January 29, 1973 was a big chapter in Plozza history. Plozza SA Brusio was founded with seven shareholders. Pietro Plozza was the first winemaker to release sforzato for commercial sale and he also taught Nino Negri how to make sforzato.
