Description
This famous grape variety derives from a budding mutation of Pinot Noir and, preferring cool climates, finds its ideal habitat in the hills. Livio Felluga's vinification gives the wine finesse and elegance, while maintaining the subtle auburn reflections that unmistakably characterise its colour. It is certainly the best known Friulian wine in the world.
