Zuani

Zuani, founded over 30 years ago by Patrizia Felluga, is a family-owned winery in the Collio DOC of Friuli Venezia Giulia, specializing in terroir-focused white wines. As the fifth generation of a viticulture dynasty, Patrizia, along with her children Antonio and Caterina, discovered the site of Zuani in the San Floriano del Collio municipality. The winery, located in the hills of Giasbana, is influenced by its proximity to Austria and Slovenia, which is reflected in the style of its wines. The name Zuani was even adopted from an antique map of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The 15-hectare vineyard is planted with Collio DOC Friulano, Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon, and the winery produces two white blends. The Zuani "Vigne" blend combines the four estate varieties, each vinified separately, cold-macerated, and stainless-steel fermented. The winery embodies the Felluga family's heritage, merging traditional Friulian varieties with a modern perspective and innovative approach. The Zuani winery embodies the Felluga family winemaking heritage and expresses the fundamental unity of the traditional aspects of Friulian varieties with their more modern side. It is a project the Fellugas are approaching with an open mind and a fresh, innovative perspective on the region and its wines. Zuani is Patrizia Felluga’s winery. The cellar applies a philosophy born of years of experience in vineyard and cellar, backed up by the knowledge acquired through Patrizia’s proven entrepreneurial skills
