The Producer

Livio Felluga

Established in 1956, the winery traces its roots to Livio Felluga's migration from his native Istria, with the family's winemaking heritage stretching back to the mid-19th century. Now in his 90s, Livio Felluga, the visionary founder and patriarch, is renowned for revolutionizing and mastering modern winemaking in Italy. His acclaim for crafting exceptionally opulent, vibrant, and impeccably balanced wines transcends the boundaries of Friuli, resonating globally as unparalleled gems within their respective categories.

Situated on the expansive 500-acre Livio Felluga Estate, the property encompasses 370 acres of picturesque hillside vineyards nestled in the Collio and Colli Orientali del Friuli. Friuli, blessed with a temperate climate shielded by the Alps to the north and influenced by the Adriatic Sea to the south, provides an ideal environment for winemaking. The meager soil, composed of marl and calcareous deposits, proves conducive to cultivating white grape varieties and contributes to the complexity of their red wines.

Felluga's commitment revolves around crafting nuanced and elegant expressions of wines rooted in grape varieties that have thrived in Friuli for centuries. The distinctive hallmark of these wines lies in their equilibrium and transparency, with a deliberate effort to minimize oak influence and emphasize utmost freshness. Livio Felluga's dedication to this winemaking philosophy has solidified his position as a maestro, leaving an indelible mark on the global wine landscape.
