History
Vines have grown at Rocca Bernarda since the 1500s; in the late 1800s Giacomo Perusini planted the first Picolit here, and in 1977 Gaetano Perusini left the estate to the Sovereign Military Order of Malta.
A benchmark for Picolit, it works about thirty-eight hectares, some 100,000 bottles, managed since 2006 by S.Agri.V.It.
