The Story
The flagship wine of the region and a native grape variety of Friuli with ancient origins, it was first documented more than two centuries ago. (Friuliano is entirely different to Hungarian “Tokay”, made from a blend of Furmint, Hàrzevelu and Muscat Lunelu grapes, whose name indicates a precise geographical area).
As the result of a ruling by the European Court, the name “Tocai Friulano” was abandoned and has been replaced by the synonym “Friulano”. Also grown in nearby Veneto, it is in Friuli, in particular, that the grape variety is used to make a 100% varietal wine.
