An 18th-century mansion nestled in a centuries-old park in the heart of Friuli Venezia Giulia. The date of construction of the villa is given as between the late 1600s and early 1700s.

In 1891, then Austrian territory, the property passed to Baron Franz Kuhn von Kuhnenfeld, minister of war and adviser to Emperor Franz Joseph.

In 1937 the property was acquired by Romano Vitas, who chose it as the site of the family winery.
