Italy Friuli Venezia Giulia

Grape variety: Sauvignon, Friulano, Chardonnay, Ribolla, Malvasia, Pinot Bianco

6 types of Sauvignon, Friulano, Chardonnay, Ribolla, Malvasia and Pinot Bianco. Harvesting only late harvested grapes (60-70 years old). All six grapes are fermented together in open fermentation barrels for 30 days of maceration. Aged for 36 months in large oak barrels from Oslavian forests, leaving a healthy sediment. The best wine in Dario's opinion. After the first vintage in 2008, we decided to produce the third time in 2018, which was a very good year.

A bunch of potential. It had a great skeleton and strength, but with repeated aging, it becomes rounder and more depth.

A close friend of Yosco Gravnel, and a classmate of Stanco Radicon and La Castellada's Nico. But Dario is different. Whereas they were the children of the cantina for generations, Dario was not. In fact, it is said that he was a wholesaler of ingredients, Gravenel, and Radicon wines to nearby restaurants and hotels.
Unable to hold back his passion for winemaking, he started home-bottling in 1993. While learning many of the technical things from Stanko Radicon, we shared the same idea for wine making.
Dario's wines are special. There is no "difficulty" or "difficulty" that Gravnel and Radicon have. It doesn't give the cold impression of trying to drink it, but it is full of "kindness" that will approach anyone.
The gorgeous and richly fragrant attack stays strong and long in the mouth. However, there is a sense of "lightness" that makes it easy to drink without feeling the "weight of the wine" due to long-term maceration.

“I learned how to make wine from Stanko, and I make wine with the same feeling as Stanko. Balance is the key, isn't it? 』

As Dario says, his wines are all about balance. The tannins, thickness, soft acidity, and firmness derived from ponca are balanced at a high level by the freshness of the fruit and the rich, dense sweetness that comes from permeating the skin for a long period of time. It can be said that it is a high-dimensional and balanced wine that only Dario can do.
