Livio Felluga at Brazzano di Cormons farms its Colli Orientali parcels organically across Rosazzo, Manzano, Buttrio and Cividale. The cellar founded by Livio Felluga (older brother of Marco) bottles the Terre Alte flagship Rosazzo blend and the Picolit DOCG half-bottle as its prestige expressions.
Tip: Pair the Friulano with the cellar's Picolit DOCG half-bottle; the cellar bottles both as flagship Colli Orientali expressions.
Address: Via Risorgimento, 1, 34071 Brazzano di Cormons, Gorizia, Italy, Friuli-Venezia Giulia
Lis Neris at San Lorenzo Isontino farms the Friuli Isonzo gravel terraces organically. The Pecorari family cellar runs Picol Sauvignon, Gris Pinot Grigio, Jurosa Chardonnay and the Lis flagship across the Isonzo river-shaped gravel terraces.
Tip: The Picol Sauvignon and Gris Pinot Grigio pour side-by-side as the cellar contrast; ask for the Jurosa Chardonnay if it is open as the oak-aged comparison.
Le Vigne di Zamo at Corno di Rosazzo farms organic Colli Orientali parcels across Rosazzo, Buttrio and the Tre Vigne family holdings. The cellar bottles Friulano, Picolit DOCG (375 ml half-bottle) and a series of single-vineyard whites that anchor the Zamo family's Rosazzo cellar reputation.
Tip: Ask for the Picolit DOCG half-bottle alongside the Friulano; the cellar is a reference Picolit producer in the Colli Orientali half-bottle format.
Edi Keber farms the Zegla vineyards above Cormons organically and bottles only one wine per vintage: the Collio Bianco (Friulano-Ribolla Gialla-Malvasia Istriana blend) that the family treats as the canonical Collio territorial wine. Twenty hectares across the Cormons Zegla parcels.
Tip: Edi Keber bottles only one wine per vintage; ask the cellar for a vertical of two or three back-vintages to read the territorial expression year to year.
Gravner buried his first qvevri amphorae at the Oslavia cellar in 2001 and the cellar has anchored the global low-intervention orange-wine map since.
Tip: Gravner is listed on the Raisin natural-wine guide and remains the global reference for buried qvevri orange wine. Library vintages show the slow-evolution trajectory.
Radikon bottles the Oslavia cellar's wines at 500 ml on the principle that the bottle should match a drinking session for a low-sulphite skin-contact wine.
Tip: Radikon's S range (Sasa and Ivan's sulphite-free line) shows the zero-added programme; the standard 500 ml line carries only a minimal bottling addition.
Damijan Podversic above Gorizia ferments with indigenous yeasts on the skins for extended periods (typically two months on the whites, six months on the reds), with oak elevage and minimal sulphite.
Tip: The Kaplja Bianco (Chardonnay, Friulano, Malvasia) is the cellar's flagship; combine with the Nekaj Ribolla for the cellar's two skin-contact whites.
