Collio

Italy's Friuli-Venezia Giulia region is the captivating source of the exquisite Collio wine, a sumptuous beverage that perfectly encapsulates the allure of Italian winemaking tradition. Cleaved by the rich Slovenian border, the enchantingly picturesque Collio region produces some of Italy's most distinguished and intriguing wines, appreciated worldwide for their supreme quality and vibrant character.

Collio wines, known in Italian as 'vino Collio' or 'Collio Goriziano', are renowned for their white varietals, although their rosé and red wines are fast gaining recognition. The wines from this region primarily use native Italian grape varieties such as Friulano, Ribolla Gialla, and Malvasia Istriana. However, the region also cultivates international varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay, resulting in a delightful assortment of wines exuding a unique identity.

Collio wines embody a spellbinding fusion of refreshing acidity and mineral undertones, owing to the region’s unique terroir characterised by a unique “ponca” soil, a mix of marl and sandstone. This distinctive soil, coupled with the region's Mediterranean climate, forms an ideal environment that furnishes the wines with their distinctive, complex and aromatic profile, making them an international favourite.

Elevating any dining experience, the white Collio wines, with their enticing nose of floral, fruit, and almond undertones, pair wonderfully with local Friulian cuisine, seafood and white meats. The reds, meanwhile, are renowned for their robust yet harmonious profile and well-suited to accompany game, red meat and mature cheeses.

In essence, the Collio wine from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region is a testament to Italy's rich winemaking heritage. These wines are not merely beverages, but rather an opportunity to taste the very essence and character of the land from which they come. With every sip one takes, they embark on a journey through the captivating landscapes of Northeast Italy, and partake in an intimate communion with the country's revered grape-harvesting culture.
