Wine cellars and producer curiosities
The Artisan of the Collio: Paolo Caccese is a true icon of Collio in Friuli. His small winery in Pradis, a fraction of Cormòns, works with a strictly artisanal approach, enhancing the individual varieties and the unique terroir of the ponca (the typical clay-sandstone soil of the area).
The Reds of the Collio: Although Collio is world-famous for its great whites, red grape varieties of Bordelaise origin such as Merlot and Cabernet Franc found in these hills an ideal habitat since the 19th century, yielding wines of great elegance and pronounced personality.
