About This Vineyard

The Bressan Winery is in the town of Mariano del Fruili in the Friuili-Venezia Giulia appellation in North-Eastern Italy on the border of Slovenia. This unusual and tasty terroir is created by the sloping vineyards of the Isonzo River Valley, shielded to the north by the Julian Alps and open to the hot winds of the Adriatic Sea from the south. This protected ‘hot spot’ in a harsh climate allows the grapes to mature early but sparsely, and defines the character of the organic wine made here with medium acidity and deep natural tannins.
