The origin
of our company name lies in the tie with tradition and culture.
In several places of our wine cellar one can still find the traditional
objects of Friuli past age, from small ornaments to job tools, to
testify our long-cultivated interest in this matter.
During the 70s, when the family company was still a dream, a great
deal of material was collected to give a title to the history that
was to be written.
Everything started with searching through the old friulano language.
Curiosity, personal passion, accuracy were the first step from which
an evocative, poetical, delicate name was born. Its neat sound makes
it effective and easy to remember.
(la) Viàrte: noun, friulano language: the opening of something,
the act of opening. Extended meaning: spring [in classic Latin
the meaning of the ablative vere, and of the expression ver apertus
was beginning of springtime or simply spring]
