Why we love it
Friulano is a native Friuli grape, formerly known as Tocai Friuliano, a grape that can produce outstanding white wines.
This Friulano wine has an elegant, fine and delicate floral nose with the grape typical almond scent, more or less noticeable depending on the vintage. In the palate the wine is full, perfectly balanced, rich, lively with a long finish, with great structure.
Friulano wines pair perfectly creamy risotto and rich, flavourful creamy pasta or fresh cheeses.
The artisan who made it
Roberto Scubla is an extraordinary individual whose deep passion for winemaking has shaped his remarkable journey. With an unwavering dedication to his craft, he made a bold and life-changing decision to leave behind the security of a stable banking career in pursuit of his dream — to cultivate vineyards and produce exceptional wines. This leap of faith into the world of viticulture was filled with uncertainty, yet through hard work, perseverance, and an unrelenting commitment to quality, he has achieved outstanding success.
His winery and vineyards are situated in the breathtaking Colli Orientali region of Friuli, nestled in the northeastern part of Italy, close to the Slovenian border. This unique terroir provides the perfect conditions for cultivating both native and international grape varieties. Roberto takes great pride in growing indigenous grapes such as Friulano and Verduzzo, which have long been part of the region’s rich winemaking tradition. At the same time, he has expertly embraced other varietals that have found an ideal home in Friuli, including Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sauvignon Blanc.
Each bottle of wine that Roberto produces reflects his dedication to excellence, showcasing a perfect balance of character, depth, and elegance. His wines are a testament to his expertise, the exceptional terroir of the region, and his passion for creating something truly special. Through his commitment and vision, Roberto Scubla has not only built a successful winery but also established himself as a respected and admired figure in the world of fine wines.
