Venica & Venica Description
Venica & Venica is one of Friuli’s most well known and respected estates, a family-owned operation whose ambition and dedication to sustainability run even deeper than their history in the Collio. Renowned for turning out highly textural and aromatic whites, their vineyards are a kaleidoscope of the vast potential of winemaking in this area, upheld by an impeccable adherence to organic practices and respect for the environment. The family’s natural sense of hospitality carries over in everything that they do, adding a special component to the azienda.
Drawing its name from the Friulian word for “pietra” or stone, Petris is also the name of this area in local dialect. The zone is characterized by its particularly rocky soils. It is 100% Malvasia Istriana - a varietal that dates back to the XIII century in Friuli-Venezia Giulia - aged mostly (70%) in botti of 20-27 hectoliter with the remaining 30% vinified in stainless steel.
