About Friuli-Venezia Giulia
Friuli-Venezia Giulia lies on the northeastern edge of Italy, surrounded by mountains and the Adriatic Sea. Throughout history, the neighbouring regions of Slovenia, Austria and the old Venetian Republic took a stab at staking their claim to the territory, leaving indelible marks on Friuli’s culture and cuisine. Although the region is relatively small compared to the rest of Italy, it ranks among the best for producers of white and orange wines that impress with their freshness, clear structure, and elegance. The most common varieties are: friulano, ribolla gialla, malvasia istriana, and pinot grigio. Red wines such as schioppettino and pignolo, while less common, are no less delicious.
