Wine Description
The Castello di Buttrio Friuli Colli Orientali Friulano 2021 is a beautifully expressive white wine that highlights the unique terroir of Friuli-Venezia Giulia in Italy’s prestigious Colli Orientali del Friuli. Made exclusively from the Friulano grape, this wine captivates with its fresh, vibrant character and delicate aromas.
Upon pouring, the wine reveals a brilliant pale straw hue, inviting you to discover its aromatic complexity. The nose bursts with invigorating citrus fruits, such as lemon zest and green apple, combined with a soft almond undertone that adds elegance and depth to its profile. On the palate, the wine is smooth yet crisp, delivering a fresh, lively acidity that harmonises with the citrus notes, while the almond finish offers a subtle, long-lasting aftertaste.
This dry white wine (with a residual sugar of just 1 g/L) is an excellent choice for those who appreciate a clean, aromatic style, with a finish that is both refreshing and slightly nutty. Perfect as an aperitif or paired with light seafood dishes, fresh cheeses, and salads, the Castello di Buttrio Friuli Colli Orientali Friulano 2021 offers a true reflection of the Friulian winemaking tradition.

| Winery | Castello di Buttrio is located in Friuli Colli Orientali and has been home to five generations of winemakers. In 1994, local legend Marco Felluga purchased the property. It began the restoration of the castle and the historic vineyards, a project carried on with dedication and determination by his daughter Alessandra and his granddaughters. Surrounding the castle, the vines cover 10 hectares and are immaculately laid along the hillside amphitheatres, which frame the undulating hills. The estate comprises parcels of old vines dating back to the 1930s, 1940s and early 1950s, which are planted with indigenous varietals, representing the historical traditions of Fruili and the heritage of the estate. Blending tradition with innovation, Alessandra produces stunning, modern, and authentic wines that are exquisitely packaged and offer a taste of this spectacular estate. |
