Friulano Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2022
Livio Felluga's Friulano is very fresh and tropical, with nuances of sour melon, young mango and white smoke forming its attractive bouquet. It impresses with a lively acidity that balances the silky texture and ripe fruit, and with a spicy herbal note that gives it unexpected depth. Perfumed and fresh to the final, leaving a pleasant mouthfeel, with hints of bitter almond but also a gentle streak of residual tension. Very nice. SUPERIORE.DE
"Light, bright straw yellow colour. Intense aroma of banana, citrus fruit, herbs on the finish. Fresh and juicy on the palate, with a powerful and fruity final." Falstaff
"Remarkably pretty, the 2022 Friulano lifts from the glass with a dusting of confectioners spices, chamomile and lemon oils. This is more savory than sweet, with fleshy textures and brisk acidity ushering in crisp orchard fruits. It tapers off with tension as the mouth waters with sour green melon and aloe nuances." Vinous
"Subtle and refined on the nose and palate with peach pie and minerals with a hint of nutmeg. Medium body. Round and creamy. Spicy on the finish." James Suckling

Pinot Grigio Collio DOC 2022
Intensely bright golden yellow in colour. An elegant Pinot Grigio with the scent of wild roses and fine, tropical pineapple, apricot, peach and orange flavours. Rich and with a fresh mineral flavour that finishes very harmoniously and elegantly. SUPERIORE.DE
"Intense straw yellow colour with a light copper-red hue. Elegant bouquet, with aromas of ripe stone fruit, underpinned by notes of cinnamon and tropical fruit. Balanced on the palate, with invigorating acidity, a fine fruit flavour and beautiful juiciness." Falstaff
"The 2022 Pinot Grigio is dramatically floral with a sweet spice and mint dusting, giving way to freshly sliced peaches. This flows across the palate with silky textures and a pure blend of ripe peach complemented by sour citrus. It tapers off with admirable length yet clean, leaving a cheek-puckering tinge of candied lemon as the mouth is left watering for more." Vinous
"Attractive flavours of nectarine and pear with spice, dried flowers, chalk and crushed rock. Medium-bodied, supple and juicy, with the sensation of ripe stone fruit in the texture. Very accessible and seductive. Creamy finish." James Suckling

Sauvignon Bianco Collio DOC 2022
Medium pale straw yellow in colour. Livio Felluga's Sauvignon Bianco impresses with its elegance, the typical varietal bouquet of pear and gooseberry, elderflower and garden herbs and a fascinating minerality. The flavour is soft and fruity, with a beautiful melting texture and a fresh, long finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"Bright straw yellow with a golden shimmer. Powerful, compact nose, ripe gooseberry and papaya, followed by a hint of nettle. Various citrus fruits on the palate, crisp, vibrant acidity, mouth-watering final." Falstaff
"The 2022 Sauvignon opens with an herbal tinge, as rosemary and sage give way to lemon rinds and exotic spice. This is soothingly round with cooling acidity that enlivens its depths of sour melon and citrus tones. The 2022 finishes spicy, potent and long, with a minty resonance and liquid stone hints." Vinous
"A rather restrained and noble Sauvignon with white sesame, light pears, apples and flint. Medium-bodied with a solid mid-palate and nice length. It is complex and beautiful. Real sophistication with sauvignon blanc." James Suckling

Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
Felluga's Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso is very appealing, showing an interesting blend of wild berries, mint, sage and autumnal spices on the nose. Its textures are silky, giving way to polished black fruits and floral notes, underlined by a complex web of minerals and fine-grained tannins. A wine of strong character made from Friuli's most famous red autochthonous grape variety. SUPERIORE.DE

“Illivio” Bianco Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2021
Illivio undoubtedly belongs to the luxury class of white wines. Made from Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and Picolit, with a complex flavour of sweet fruit and fresh spices, it reflects the enormous potential of its origin. Its flavour structure, balanced acidity and lingering finish are ideal. SUPERIORE.DE
"Sparkling straw yellow colour. Compact, elegant nose, pineapple and pear, as well as a hint of hazelnut. Beautifully juicy on the palate, with a delicate melt, present acidity, lingering final." Falstaff
"The 2021 Illivio, a blend of Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and Piccolit, takes its time in the glass, sweetly alluring with a tinge of vanilla bean that embellishes fresh sliced peaches. Split pine and mint aromas add contrast. The 2021 soothes with its silky textures and supple character, bending around the contours of the palate as nectarine and bitter lemon rind notes collect under an air of pretty inner florals. Its minerality comes through the finish, classically dry and tense, as Asian pear and exotic spices slowly fade. While already showing beautifully today, the 2021 will show its best after a few years of cellaring." Vinous

“Curubella” Pinot Grigio Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
Livio Felluga's new crus come from massalselection. For this purpose, selected vines are reproduced in particularly advantageous locations in order to renew vineyards with especially high-quality vines and to further improve the quality of individual varietal wines.
Named after the small Curubella vineyard, this Pinot Grigio expresses the unique and very expressive terroir in a very special way. Golden yellow with copper-coloured reflections, which are the result of a longer maceration period. On the nose, autumnal notes of medlar, jasmine and white pepper, rounded off by elderberry, marjoram, melon and orange zest. On the firm palate, powerful and expressive of candied fruit, spice with floral elements. In the long finish then traces of acacia honey and pastry. Complex and deep with a very clear personality, freshness and beautiful minerality. SUPERIORE.DE
"Delicate orange pink, a Ramato that is anything but a name. Spicy, salty notes with a hint of bread crust over brooding apricot with a hint of flowers. Restrained at first, then layers of apricot and peach with spice notes and bitter orange on the finish. It would be a shame not to serve this wine with a sole. It has a lot of life ahead of it." Jancis Robinson
"In the local dialect, Curubella means "rounded highland" and describes the land where this massive selection of Pinot Grigio vines was planted in 1981. This traditional Ramato-style Pinot Grigio spends two days on the skins for a delicate copper hue and subtle texture, and is aged in Cocciopesto amphorae - a mixture of sand, gravel and clay used for thousands of years - for a completely neutral but oxidative vessel. The result is a fragrant and leafy aroma, with an intense, creamy and bright palate of green fruits, soft melon, subtle yellow fruits and a floral, lifted finish with more creaminess." Decanter
"Beautiful aromas of cantaloupe melon, rose petals and pear blossom. Medium bodied, growing on the palate with white pepper and peaches with some honeysuckle. Refined. A new wine from a single vineyard from here." James Suckling

“Potentilla” Sauvignon Friuli Colli Orientali DOC 2019
Livio Felluga's new cru wines are the result of massalselection. For this purpose, selected vines are reproduced in particularly advantageous locations in order to renew vineyards with especially high-quality vines and to further improve the quality of individual varietal wines.
The grapes for this very characterful and complex Sauvignon Bianco come from vines planted as early as 1975. It captivates with its creamy texture and, due to the four weeks of malolactic fermentation followed by nine months of barrel ageing. Pure gold in the glass with rich yellow nuances. Opens with summery scents of rose and boxwood, then physalis, passion fruit, nettle, pickled peach and a delicate coriander note. Supple on the palate, of great elegance with complex sweetness, exoticism and citrus fruit. The wood is well integrated and underlines the aristocratic character of this exceptional wine. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2019 Sauvignon Potentilla opens in the glass like a fresh spring morning, with wet stone and cut grass nuances giving way to freshly squeezed lemonade. It's silky and supple on the palate, with depths of ripe citrus-tinged orchard fruits propelled by juicy acidity. Its minerality comes forward through the finish, tapering off salty and savory yet remarkably fresh, leaving sage and grapefruit notes to fade slowly. The Potentilla rests a month on the lees, adding to its textural depth and complexities." Vinous
"From a massal selection of vines first planted in 1975, this wine spent several hours in contact with the skins before alcoholic and malolactic fermentations, and then matured in 15hl casks for several months. The result is a white with intense aromas of tinned peach, yellow plum and cream. Savoury waxiness with texture and weight make this a superb food wine capable of matching up to a variety of dishes. Creamy and woody then slightly earthy flavours of apricot skin, banana peel and bruised apple lead to a long and fresh finish." Decanter
"The name of this wine derives from the flower of the same name, "Potentilla". The name combines the Latin "potenza" for power with the diminutive form of "illa" creating defining the small flower with great power. This is a perfect name for this delicious Sauvignon from the historic Livo Felluga estate. Aromas of white peach, citrus oil and yellow flowers leap out of the glass. The palate is round and texture, due to oak aging, finishing with hints of nectarine, crushed rock and a touch of herb. Beautifully balanced this wine will age quiet well. Drink Now." Wine Enthusiast
"Litchi fruit with kiwi and lemon notes. Very fresh and bright aromas. Full to medium body with lively acidity and a bright, tangy finish. Lime and some graphite come through." James Suckling

The grapes for this very characterful and multi-layered Sauvignon Bianco come from vines planted back in 1975. It is characterised by its creamy texture and nine months of ageing in barrels after four weeks of malolactic fermentation. Pure gold in the glass with rich yellow nuances.

Smooth on the palate, very elegant with complex sweetness, exoticism and citrus fruit. The wood is well integrated and emphasises the aristocratic character of this exceptional wine. SUPERIORE.DE
"A blend of savory herbs, spiced orange peels and incense gives way to a vivid nectarine as the 2020 Sauvignon Potentilla blossoms in the glass. This is deeply textural, with masses of mineral-tinged pit fruits complicated by a sour citrus tinge. The 2020 finishes spicy and with a youthful tension that puckers the cheeks as candied lemons fade." Vinous
"A very serious Sauvignon blanc, showing intense lemons, stones, perfectly ripe gooseberries and limes with a hint of sour cream. Almost full-bodied on the palate with impressive concentration. Mineral, taut and broad with plenty of substance. Pure and supple." James Suckling

Livio Felluga's new crus come from massal selection. For this purpose, selected vines are reproduced in particularly advantageous locations in order to renew vineyards with especially high-quality vines and to further improve the quality of individual varietal wines.
Livio Felluga often stood in the evening twilight, his gaze fixed on the sky, with a cigar, watching the weather. The Friulano vines from which this cru comes were planted as early as 1963, producing medium-sized, loose-grained grapes. Yeast ageing and maturation in terracotta tanks give Sigar its depth and pronounced spiciness and minerality. Golden yellow with greenish nuances. In the complex bouquet fine saffron spice, candied lemon peel, dried apricots and lemon peel. The drink is grippy, compact and fresh with a seductive spiciness and salty note, then balsamic notes in the long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Livio Felluga often stood in the evening twilight with a cigar, his eyes fixed on the sky, watching the weather. The Friulano vines from which this cru originates were planted back in 1963 and produce medium-sized, loose-berried grapes.

"The 2020 Friulano Sigar is wildly exotic, with a burst of tropical melon, minty herbs, pine resin and kiwis. Silky and enveloping, this possesses tremendous depth and complexity with a spicy citrus core. A wave of crisp orchard fruits cascades throughout. It finishes fresh with a resonance of lime and saline minerals that slowly taper off. This is a unique vintage for the Friulano Sigar due to rain during harvest that resulted in a partial selection with botrytis." Vinous

“Abbazia di Rosazzo” Bianco Rosazzo DOCG 2017
Rich cuvée from the white grape varieties of Friuli. The bouquet of white flowers and yellow fruits has a pleasant smoky note. In the taste opulent flavours of yellow and white fruits, dried apricots and honey, the balanced acid gives backbone and structure. SUPERIORE.DE
"The Livio Felluga 2017 Rosazzo Abbazia di Rosazzo is a beautiful choice made from a carefully contemplated blend of Friulano, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon, Malvasia and Ribolla Gialla.

“Sosso” Rosso Riserva Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC 2016
Since the 2016 vintage, Livio Felluga's top wine Sossò has been maturing in the bottle for an extra year before being released for sale. This Riserva is a beautiful, rich and comforting red wine that is dense on the palate, imparting pretty cherry and dark fruit flavours with plenty of spice and tobacco. The extremely articulate flavour shoulders a convincing tannin portion and yet steers into an intensely fruity final with terrificlength. The wine simply glides forward with its unique feel and a dynamism that is slow and long-lasting. SUPERIORE.DE
"Rich ruby red colour with a dark core. Pleasant aromas of plums, blackcurrant, blackberry, cloves and cedar on the nose. Fresh fruit on the palate, present fine-meshed tannins and a powerful final." Falstaff
"A medium-bodied red wine with plum and chocolate flavours and an underlying walnut character. Juicy and spicy." James Suckling
"Mesmerizing is the first thought that crosses the mind as the 2016 Sossó lifts from the glass with a bouquet of cedar shavings, minty herbs and white pepper, giving way to black raspberries and pine aromas. Silky and enveloping, yet lifted and racy in feel, this saturates the senses as an intense wave of tart wild berry fruits and saline minerals settle upon the palate. Wild blueberries, savory herbs and violet inner florals resonate throughout as the 2016 finishes staining, structured and incredibly long. It's a red wine that could only hail from Friuli." Vinous

Limitation of 6 articles per customer“Abbazia di Rosazzo” Bianco Rosazzo DOCG 2019
Rich and refined top cuvée from the white grape varieties of Friuli. The bouquet of white flowers and yellow fruit has a pleasantly smoky note. Opulent flavours of yellow and white fruits, dried apricots and honey on the palate, the balanced acidity provides backbone and structure. SUPERIORE.DE
"Sparkling straw yellow with delicate nuances of green. Stone fruit, peach and some apricot on the nose, subtle flint notes and a hint of vanilla. Powerful on the palate, lively acidity, delicate phenolics, mouthwatering finish." Falstaff
"Clean and mineral, with a saline undertone and vibrant flavours of freshly sliced apples and pears, blanched almonds, almond blossom and a hint of ground white pepper. Fresh, chalky finish." Wine Spectator
"The 2019 Abbazia di Rosazzo is more delicate and nuanced, with dusty dried flowers, crushed almonds and sweet smoke on the nose. It feels silky yet almost weightless and floats on the palate with a savoury mix of white stone fruits and inner flowers. It leaves a hint of minerality and finishes with a beautiful tension that leaves flinty notes of liquid stone and Bosc pear. The Abbazia di Rosazzo is an understated beauty." Vinous
"Fascinating aromas of ash, wet stones, dried apples, hints of honey and flint. Tar. Full-bodied with great density and energy. Framed and firm. Vine bark with mushrooms. Reserved. Old vines. 80 to 100 years old." James Suckling

Picolit Colli Orientali del Friuli DOCG 2017 dolce · in gift box
Felluga's Picolit is a perfect example and explains the popularity and reputation of this rare and traditional sweet wine. Golden yellow in colour, it has a wonderful aroma of honey, white flowers and ripe tropical fruit. The sweet and rich flavour is characterised by a pleasant viscosity and impeccable balance. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2017 Picolit displays a vibrant yellow-golden color with a seductive bouquet of ripe peaches, lemon custard and confectionary spice. It opens with a pleasant inner sweetness offset by sour citrus as opulent waves of tropical melon flow across a stream of zesty acidity. This finishes with fantastic length and staining yet is still remarkably fresh. Baked pear and fresh mint notes linger on. There's wonderful complexity and balance here." Vinous
"Intense nose of ginger biscuits, pineapple, dried mango, lemon, marmalade, honey, acacia and candied almonds. Lush and sweet, yet balanced and concentrated, with a delicious, spicy ginger character." James Suckling

Limitation of 3 articles per customer“Terre Alte” Bianco Rosazzo DOCG 2021
Terre Alte Rosazzo is made from Tocai Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon Bianco. It is a spice bomb that seduces with a beguiling blend of flint, dried flowers and ginger, balanced by vividly ripe nectarines. Terre Alte washes over the palate with an opulent, textured wave of mineral fruits and savoury spices, while taking on a citrus-derived tension towards the finish. The finish is long and floral, with tart fruit and wild herbs complemented by a hint of lemon custard. The balance, but also the depth of its character and personality are almost unreal - a beguiling, very great Italian white wine! SUPERIORE.DE

This name is cult in the Italian wine industry. Even though the next two generations have long since successfully managed the winery, Livio Felluga will probably remain a role model for several more generations. After all, he was the driving force and innovator for the entire Friuli wine region for decades.
When he settled here in the Collio, in Brazzano near Cormons, in 1956, he had two world wars including captivity behind him, the home of his childhood in Istria had sunk into the sea, the wine trade of his ancestors no longer existed and the once proud southern region of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy was unnaturally divided by peace treaties, was thus partly in the "Eastern Bloc" and was largely abandoned by the population. But Livio Felluga saw a future in the hills of Rosazzo, founded a small winery, built an advanced cellar with growth potential, recultivated abandoned vineyards and planted new ones - and over the decades built up one of the most successful and internationally renowned wineries in Italy. There is practically no award that his wines have not received, and he himself has been honoured with honorary degrees, becoming Doctor h.c. of the University of Udine and "Patriarch of Friulian Viticulture". He died in 2016 at the age of 102.
The label he designed himself, which shows the estate's vineyards, lives on, as does his philosophy of quality. He still focuses on a mix of different grape varieties that Livio Felluga found "suitable for the land", whether autochthonous such as (Tokai) Friulano, Picolit, Ribolla Gialla or Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso, as well as "international". For he quickly recognized that Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Bianco and Chardonnay were already at home here before the Second World War, as were Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
The focus is on elegant white wines such as "Terre Alte" from Friulano, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon or "Illivio" from a selection of the best Pinot Bianco grapes, as well as Chardonnay and Picolit. For some years now, the "Wine of Roses" from the vineyards belonging to the historic Abbazia di Rosazzo Monastery, leased by the Felluga family, has also been included in the range, where old vines from Friulano, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon Blanc, Malvasia and Ribolla Gialla are cultivated and used only for this top quality wine. With the "Sossó" of Merlot, Refosco and Pignolo, however, Livio Felluga was able to positively surprise many a Bordeaux or Brunello lover in the early 1990s. SUPERIORE.DE
