| 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. |
