                    Production Notes
- In September, meticulously hand-harvested ripe bunches undergo gentle destemming and a week-long skin maceration.
- Fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 25°C lasts 20 days.
- Aging for 14 months—half in oak barriques and half in stainless steel tanks—culminates in a blended wine aged an additional six months before bottling.
 

 
    Friuli Venezia Giulia
Adriano Gigante
"What you sow now, you'll get in the future."
Grandfather Ferruccio, a miller at heart but a farmer by passion, bought a house and vineyard in Rocca Bernarda in 1957, devoted to crafting Friuli white wine. His son Arturo shared stories of their journey, moving from Vencò to Corno di Rosazzo. In the 1980s, Adriano, Arturo’s son, embraced the family legacy, introducing the peacock symbol on their first bottles. Today, Adriano, his wife Giuliana, and cousin Ariedo, a dedicated wine technician, continue Ferruccio's heartfelt vision.
