Terre di Plovia – “Ucelut” Venezia Giulia IGT
Ucelut (from “uccello” meaning bird in Italian. This name recalls the so-called ‘bird grapes’ growing spontaneously at the edge of the woods and which birds are fond of), is a historic indigenous Friulian grape variety that had almost disappeared. It has been recovered and is now thriving in our vineyards in Valeriano, in the north eastern region Friuli, at the foot of the Alps. Valeriano is located in the municipality of Pinzano al Tagliamento, a hilly area with intense temperature shifts and rainfall, where the soil is mainly composed of silt, sand and clay. Here, Ucelut expresses its authentic character and uniqueness in a wine with elegant floral scents of acacia and wild flowers, soft on the palate, while maintaining the pleasant freshness and sapidity that enhance its taste.

The Grave Friulana is a particularly suitable area for the cultivation of the “Glera” vine and therefore it was included in the appellation of origin (Prosecco DOC). Its stony and loose soil, the significant temperature shifts and the ventilated microclimate, make the grapes express their unique characteristics and, together with a careful vinification, result in an elegant Prosecco. In the glass you will find a surprising fine perlage, a fruity and fresh bouquet enriched with mineral notes. The sip is delicate and creamy and recalls the same scents you perceived on the nose. The finish is long, pleasantly sapid and mineral.
