DESCRIPTION
The Fantin Nodar winery is located in a unique area of the Friuli Colli Orientali appellation. It rises above terraced slopes made of "ponca", the local term for hills made of alternate layers of marl and sandstone. Malvasia Istriana has an intense and unique varietal aroma. The sweet touch of lavender is well balanced by mineral, almost briny notes. It is fantastic with fish dishes and delicate meats.
REGION
Friuli Venezia Giulia
Italy
Famous for its rich, ripe Pinot Grigio, the Friuli Venezia Giulia region has more than thirty grape varieties, both native and international. Among the signature varieties, Friulano, Ribolla Gialla and Malvasia Istriana give dry white wines with lovely natural acidity, perfectly expressing the minerality and salinity of Friulian soils. For reds, Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso and Schioppettino offer structured, spicy wines deeply rooted in their terroir. Alongside them, international varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc have found their place and show a unique character here.
The geographic diversity of the region shows in its wine styles: in the north, the temperate continental climate favours fresh, floral whites, while areas closer to the sea, such as Isonzo and Carso, give taut, saline and mineral wines, perfect with seafood, grilled fish or Slavic inspired dishes.
Finally, Friuli is also one of the historic cradles of Prosecco, the refreshing sparkling white wine now famous around the world.
