Friuli Venezia Giulia
Gorizia
La Castellada
Ten hectares on the Oslavia ridge above Gorizia, farmed by the Bensa family across three generations. Founded as a tavern in 1954 and bottling under the La Castellada label since 1985, the estate is a founding voice in the Ribolla di Oslavia association that turned this thick-skinned local grape into a serious macerated white. Whites ferment with native yeasts and long skin contact in conical vats, age in old Slavonian botti and tonneaux, and bottle without filtration. The range covers Ribolla Gialla, Friulano, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio Ramato and a long-macerated Bianco della Castellada blend, plus a small-parcel Merlot.

Lis Neris
Founded in 1879 in San Lorenzo Isontino, Lis Neris is the Pecorari family's seventy-hectare estate on the Isonzo gravel plain. Alvaro Pecorari turned the cellar toward single-vineyard whites in the 1980s and built the Friuli Isonzo DOC range that now puts Gris (Pinot Grigio), Picol (Sauvignon Blanc), Jurosa (Chardonnay) and La Vila (Friulano) at the heart of the wine list, with Venezia Giulia IGT cuvees Lis, Confini and the Tal Luc passito above them. A four-suite Wine Relais and three structured tasting itineraries make the estate a working base for visiting Collio and the eastern Friuli appellations.
