Looking for a buttery California Chardonnay? This is not it.
In Friuli, we make Chardonnay wines that are entirely unoaked, bringing to bear a completely different taste, like nothing you have ever experienced. The 2015 vintage of this particular Chardonnay received the prestigious "Tre Bicchieri" award in the 2017 competition.
This wine from di Lenardo, a family that has been making wine since 1878, is the only one in Friuli to use only vines of the “Musque” clone, meaning that this wine is highly aromatic and unique in its composition. Di Lenardo is acknowledged as one of the best quality brands in the Friuli Grave area and the most technologically-advanced. Since 2009, the winery has used only solar energy to run its cellar. Environmentally conscious, equally advanced in winemaking, try this little wine for a great surprise that will change your tastes in Chardonnay!

Marco Cecchini's focus is to spotlight the terroir of the small Faedis region while embracing the philosophies of bio-dynamic and organic farming. Cultivating a number of Friuli indigenous varietals, Cecchini's forward thinking has also led him to plant international varietals like Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, and this exquisite Riesling.
Cecchini Riesling is a "Cru," coming from a single organic vineyard. It is rich, creamy, and aromatic with the minerality of the Friuli soil coming through for a fresh taste. "A walk in a wood, under the shadow of the trees in an autumn day."

The "riposo del soldato'" or "soldier's rest" is an elegant, botanical vermouth. It was been developed with the purpose of amplifying the value of Castelvecchio red wine in order to create a unique product in which the vibrancy of the wine combines with classic aromatic plants and botanicals from the Italian tradition. For this reason, a larger amount of wine has been used, in comparison to the usual vermouths, and no chemical stabilizer nor preservative has been added except for pure grain alcohol.
Try Castelvecchio Vermouth in your favorite cocktails or simply with ice and a citrus peel garnish.
