Friuli Grave DOC

Friuli Grave is the largest DOC in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of north-east Italy, covering a broad area of gravelly plains (the name 'Grave' refers to the gravel-rich soils) between the Alps and the Adriatic. The appellation produces a wide range of both white and red wines, reflecting Friuli's reputation as one of Italy's premier white wine regions while also showing the country's diversity of grape varieties. Whites from Friuli Grave are typically fresh, aromatic, and food-friendly, made from varieties such as Pinot Grigio, Friulano (Tocai), Sauvignon Blanc, and Chardonnay, often showing crisp acidity and clean fruit character thanks to the region's cool Alpine influences. Reds, made from grapes like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Refosco, tend to be medium-bodied and approachable. Our Friuli Grave collection offers excellent-value wines from one of Italy's most underrated regions for white wine. These wines are versatile at the table, particularly the whites, which pair beautifully with seafood, light pasta dishes, and antipasti.
