Livio Felluga

Livio Felluga is a wine producer based in the Colli Orientali del Friuli zone of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, northeastern Italy. The estate operates within one of the region's most respected DOC areas, focusing primarily on white wine production alongside select red wines. Their vineyards are situated in the hillside terrain that characterizes this part of Friuli, where the continental climate and marl-sandstone soils create favorable conditions for both international and indigenous grape varieties.

The Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC is recognized for producing crisp, mineral-driven white wines that express the territory's unique geological composition. This area benefits from a climate influenced by both Alpine and Adriatic conditions, creating significant diurnal temperature variation that helps preserve acidity in the grapes. The region has a particular affinity for varieties like Friulano, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon Blanc, which thrive in the well-drained soils and moderate climate.

Livio Felluga's current range demonstrates this regional focus, with multiple vintages of Pinot Grigio from the Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC forming the core of their white wine production. Their portfolio includes the Terre Alte bottling, a white blend combining Sauvignon Blanc, Friulano, and Pinot Bianco from the Rosazzo DOCG subzone. The estate also produces Vertigo Rosso, a Cabernet Sauvignon-based red wine under the broader Venezia Giulia IGT classification.
