Owning & Enjoying

Tasting notes
Very deep yellow colour with evident amber notes, full bouquet with notes of ripe and tropical fruit.
It has a pronounced citrus scent, with secondary aromas of noble esterification. Savoury, wine in acidity, but also rich in glycerine, which softens and balances the acidic sensation.

Pairing
It pairs well with raw fish dishes, shellfish, pasta dishes with chicken ragout, and white meat dishes in general.

Production

Terroir: The origin of the soil is alluvial from Miocene
conglomeratic rocks. It is a calcareous soil with medium skeleton and depth. The fertile layer is 60-70 cm deep and rests on a rocky mixed bedrock.
The lie of the land is hilly.

Winemaking: The vineyards are cultivated according to certified organic methods, without any pesticides or unauthorized interventions. The grapes are harvested by hand, sorted, boxed, cleaned if necessary and then pressed.

This vintage was very ripe and had a lot of sugar. The pressed juice is fermented with wild yeasts and then left for extended maceration on the skins in a temperature-controlled environment for about 15 days. Fermentation is usually very slow.

After maceration, the must is separated from the wine by static methods, then stored in cement tanks and transformed into wine by a secondary process. Over time, several rackings are carried out at different times, allowing the wine to rest naturally on the precious lees in order to maximize its volume and aromas.

Long maceration and the use of wild yeasts are a return to tradition, but also aim to make the most of the terroir (the area and its microclimate) of the vineyards, especially in this hilly region surrounded by natural forests. All steps are carried out in compliance with the standards of organic wine production.

About the Winery

Cuatri

Cuatri

"Cuatri" means "4" in the Friulian dialect, representing the fusion of four entities into a single symphony. It signifies a network of four wine producers and enthusiasts dedicated to preserving the land of Friuli. While they each embody different spirits, they share one vision: to create wines that express the unique characteristics of the vineyards rooted in the land of Caneva. "CUATRI" is the fruit of passion and dedication to the land, born from deep insight, curiosity, and a profound connection to the soil, craftsmanship, nature, and experience. This long-standing effort has resulted in the creation of three certified organic orange wines, which stand as a testament to the ongoing commitment to telling the unique story of Friuli and its land.
