Some of our recently arrived direct imports all at amazing prices...
We are pleased to offer up some of our direct import wines, all perfect for Spring drinking. Many of these are our own “discoveries” and cannot be readily found in other markets. They are the fruits of our labor… where we taste many, many samples before finding wines that are worthy of our name as the importer on the back label. With prices of everything on the rise it’s nice to know that as direct importers we can still bring over amazing values that are basically selling at the same prices they were 5+ years ago. Stock up NOW!!!

This direct import was "discovered" for us by the same broker who sells us Pasquiers. A small family-run operation
With 40 ha in DOC Friuli, they care about the bees (SNQP = sustainable certification for the wines / close to organic certification/ and also for workers ).
They are located in Friuli Venezia Giulia.
From our friends at the winery:
"The lower Friuli area is a landscape particularly favourable to the cultivation of vine. This is possible due to the proximity to the Adriatic Sea that mitigates the temperatures, but also due to the presence of the mountain range of the Julian Prealps that divert the cold northern currents away"
