white grape

Friulano

Cool alpine-influenced vineyards of Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

Known as: Sauvignonasse, Tokay Friulano

Friulano, once misleadingly labelled 'Tokay', is the true signature white of Italy's northeast, prized for its almond-scented elegance.

It is quietly distinguished: ripe pear, white blossom and a signature bitter-almond finish that makes it a sommelier favourite.

For the buyer, Friulano is the connoisseur's Italian white — subtle, refined and made for the table.
