The famous FAMILY
The deep connection our family has with wine takes us back generations.
It dates back to the promotion of the best Friulian wines on the menus of the Family’s various restaurants in the USA.
It was this passion for wine, with the desire to rediscover our origins, that led us, in 1997, to plant the first vineyards in Friuli, in one of Italy’s most vocated areas for the production of white wines.

The VIP EXPERIENCE
Sharing with you the nuances of our wines, which speak of family, tradition, culture and passion, to make you fully appreciate the potential of Friuli.
These the reasons that pushed us to open the doors of the family cellar to great enthusiasts and lovers of the world of wine.
A wonderful journey that follows all the stages of the life of wine, from the vineyards to the cellar, up to the tasting room.
The amazing VIP GRAND menù
After a VIP guided wine tasting, the family restaurant welcomes you with the 100% Ribolla Gialla sparkling wine, followed by an incredible gourmet menu created by our Chef for the best pairing with our TOP wines.
A creative journey that mixes sea and land… from octopus to beef, from truffles to prawns, from citrus fruits to cheese, from tuna to Black Angus, from peaches to wine…
Wine Spectator TOP 100 judgement:
A silky, light- to medium-bodied white, with a smoky note of toasted hazelnut layered with pear tart and a lively touch of lemon curd. Balanced and lightly mouthwatering throughout, with a rich hint of lanolin on the finish. Drink now through 2025. 2,800 cases made, 1,700 cases imported. —AN
