Terre Grosse
Terre Grosse is a family vineyard and winery in the Piave region of Veneto, Italy, located in Zenson di Piave. The name “Terre Grosse” refers to the fertile clay soils (“big lands”) that characterize their vineyards. Their story began in 1931 when Piero Toninato planted the first vines. Today, the business is run by Nadia together with her children and collaborators, carrying forward a legacy rooted in sustainability and innovation.
Land, Grapes & Farming
The estate encompasses about 8 hectares of vineyards. Some vines are more than 70 years old, while others are recent plantings. The estate maintains a mix of nearly forgotten local grape varieties, international grapes, and new disease-resistant vines.
Farming is organic and has been certified since 2018. Biodiversity is protected by maintaining tall grass between rows, using only minimal treatments such as copper and sulfur when necessary, and gradually replacing less sustainable varieties with more resilient ones.
Winemaking & Style
Winemaking follows a natural, low-intervention philosophy: grapes are hand-selected in the vineyard, fermentations are spontaneous, and most wines are neither filtered nor clarified. Vintage variation is embraced rather than minimized.
Varieties include Raboso Piave, Grapariol, Cabernet Franc, Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso, and others, alongside white blends and resistant grape varieties.
Character & Mission
Terre Grosse defines itself as both guardian of tradition and agent of change: preserving the old-vine heritage while exploring sustainable methods and modern practices where they add value.
Their ethos is built on respect for the environment, soil vitality, minimal chemical input, and allowing the unique character of each vineyard and vintage to shine.
The result is a collection of wines that are approachable yet expressive — wines to be shared, carrying the imprint of clay soils, the Piave climate, and a rustic yet vibrant personality.
