Wine variety


Obtained 100% from Tocai friulano grape: the white wine of Collio maybe the most representative and renowned one, but since 2007 it had to give up the name in favor of Hungary, changing it in Friulano. Mentioned for the first time in the dowry agreement of 1632 of Aurora Formentini, a noblewoman of San Floriano, who brought her husband "vitti di Toccai... 300", three centuries later (1933) Ernesto Massi wrote "the current direction of viticulture in Gorizia tends to favor fine white grapes, such as Tocai". It has always been present in the company, being one of the native varieties of the area.
