Friuli | Red Wine
Between Austria, Slovenia and the Mediterranean Sea there is the finest ham and one of the most refined white wines in Italy. Traveled only by a few connoisseurs, this region with the urban centers of Udine and Trieste has always remained true to itself - also in the character of its wine products. Today, small Friuli - or more precisely Friuli Venezia Giulia - is one of the great Italian wine-growing regions, and when commitment and seriousness go hand in hand with the right choice of varieties, the appropriate soils, strict yield limitation and uncompromising vinification and aging, remarkable wines are the result. Everyone knows it, the Prosecco. But hardly anyone knows that this sparkling wine takes its name from the Friulian grape variety that grows near the town of Prosecco near Trieste - today known as Glera.
Often cultivated red grape varieties of Friuli are Merlot, Cabernet-Franc, Cabernet-Sauvignon and Refosco. - Gerardo [TS07/22]
"In Friuli - Venezia Giulia has always been a high-class viticulture, behind which are carefully and consciously working winemakers, trained in a long tradition." - Slow Wine
