From this winery
  • Start up year: 1967
  • Oenologist: Giancarlo Tommasi, Giulio Tirel
  • Bottles produced: 140.000
  • Hectares: 50
Acquired in 1967 and located in Capriva del Friuli, in the heart of Collio, Russiz Superiore is considered the Cru of Marco Felluga.

Its name originates from the toponym of the hills where its vineyards are located and has always been synonymous with quality and excellence. The eagle of Russiz Superiore, the winery’s emblem, comes from the coat of arms of the Torre Tasso princes—a noble family that arrived in Friuli in 1273 and ruled for many years over the lands where the estate now stands, boasting a history of over 700 years. The estate spans 100 hectares, 50 of which are dedicated to vineyards. The planting density is 6,000 vines per hectare, with a predominant focus on white wine production. Read more

Origin Capriva del Friuli (Gorizia).
Soil composition Hilly, formed during the Eocene epoch with an alternation of marls and sandstones. Its impermeability causes surface water run-off with consequent soil erodibility, leading to a very gentle morphology.
Cultivation system Guyot.
Harvest By hand, at the end of September.
Wine making After harvesting, the grapes are separated from the stems. The juice and pulp undergo a cold maceration, then a slight pressing to separate from the skins. About 15% of the must is fermented in oak barrels, the rest in stainless steel vats.
Aging The wine is left to rest for about 8 months on yeasts and then bottled.
Allergens Contains sulphites
