Friulano

A great wine,
crafted with the skills
acquired from the fathers
and the care of the sons.
__________

In our local vernacular we say “bevìnsi un taj” – which broadly translates into “let’s have a glass of wine” – when we meet friends and want to catch up with them. This ritual has remained the same since time immemorial, long before wine became a posh get-together drink. In the old days the Pillars of Hercules that delimited the small peasant world were the wooden benches around a central hearth locally known as “fogolàr”, or little beyond the rural home, the mulberry trees at the end of the vineyard. Tocai Friulano was the wine shared by the community: the “Friulano”. The “Friulano”, full stop. And as the days followed nights and nights followed days for moons and moons the sons became fathers. The vineyards are now organic: and the ancient skills and traditional practices will be passed on through generations for a long time still to come.
