Terroir:

The Friulian Grave is an area in the high plains of Friuli Venezia Giulia. Our vineyards are located in the western part of this zone, in the province of Pordenone, near the Carnic Prealps, at an altitude of 80 to 90 meters above sea level. This landscape was shaped over millennia by limestone and dolomite debris carried down from the mountains by the Meduna, Cellina rivers and from glaciations. The zone enjoys an exceptional microclimate for viticulture due to two key geographic factors: The mountains to the north, which shield the vineyards from cold northern winds; The Adriatic Sea, which mitigates temperatures across the plain. The most extraordinary feature of this landscape is its vast expanse of stones, which acts as a natural temperature regulator for the vines. During the day, the pebbles reflect the light and heat needed for the grapes to ripen. At night, they release the stored heat, keeping climate conditions steady. This controlled thermal balance is crucial in late summer, as it extends the harvest season to yield sweeter, highly aromatic grapes.
