“Friuli is a land of contrasts, where wines are shaped by the winds of the Alps and the warmth of the sea.” – Mario Soldati 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧'𝐬 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐛𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐞? In Friuli-Venezia Giulia, the answer is a resounding yes. This enchanting area is a tapestry of 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐬. Mountains meet the sea, creating unique microclimates that shape over 30,000 hectares of vineyards. The result? A stunning array of grape varieties and wine styles.

These wines showcase freshness and minerality, with moderate alcohol: they reflect modern elegance and are gaining traction worldwide as drinkers crave lighter styles. This region’s winemaking landscape also balances contrasts, with large cooperatives bringing Friuli wines to international markets, while family-owned wineries such carry the region’s heritage to global audiences. Each producer, large and small, contributes to a mosaic that honors Friuli’s deep winemaking roots and unique terroirs. And while Friuli’s wine diversity includes international varieties, it is the 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐬—Schioppettino, Pignolo, Tazzelenghe, Friulano, and Picolit—that hold a special place in Friuli’s 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐲. These grapes carry the authentic spirit of this land , these varieties tell a story that resonates with wine lovers seeking authenticity and unique flavors.

In recent years, Italian white wines have improved significantly due to advancements in vineyard and winemaking techniques. However, this progress has led to a troubling standardization, with wines from various regions increasingly resembling one another. The abundance of awards—often lacking discernment—has resulted in fewer truly “great” whites emerging, which showcase unique characteristics and depth. In this pursuit of consistency, is greatness being sacrificed? How many producers and judges have genuinely experienced the world’s great white wines? (This last question is mine.) The article offers a broader perspective, but I wanted to highlight this specific aspect.

"True originality consists not in a new manner but in a new vision." – Edith Wharton We fully agree with Helmuth K. Köcher on the need to simplify the communication of the Italian wine regions. Too often, micro-parcellizations dilute the essence of the most suitable terroirs and regional identities, aiming to please everyone but failing to highlight the truly exceptional areas. When it comes to #native #autochthonous grape varieties, if certain ones haven’t been embraced by the market, we need to ask ourselves why. Is it a matter of style, taste, or alcohol levels? It’s crucial to recognize that for some of these indigenous varieties, the market may be limited to #niche audiences, which is perfectly fine. However, reaching these consumers requires communicating a broader set of values and experiences beyond the product itself. It’s also worth noting that festivals and competitions have played a pivotal role in shaping consumer tastes, often setting trends. Unfortunately, many autochthonous varieties haven’t always found the representation they deserve in these forums. How will the industry ensure that both heritage and market demands are balanced to create a sustainable future for Italian wine? #wine #marketing #communication #identity #brand

Il caso #Moncaro, nelle #Marche, e la crisi di #CantineEuropa, in #Sicilia, con il tentativo di salvataggio da parte di #ColombaBianca. La #crisi della #cooperazione in #Italia nel mio ultimo articolo su wine-searcher. *It is a hot summer for Italian #wine – and not only because of the high temperatures that are marking the 2024 vintage. Hard times hitting two large cooperatives, Moncaro in the Marche and Cantine Europa in #Sicily, is shaking the sector with repercussions that go far beyond the #cooperatives' respective regions. It is the tip of the iceberg of an ailing sector, starting with its cooperative giants – and it is not a seasonal illness; rather, it is a #structural disease, the cure for which may require unpopular choices. At risk is the commercial #future and international #reputation of two well-known and appreciated Italian white wines: #Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi and #Grillo.

"𝘐𝘧 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘣𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘪𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨" – 𝘎𝘦𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘦 𝘚. 𝘗𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘰𝘯 Thanks to Davide Bortone and winemag.it for this insightful interview. The debate around 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼 and its branding is a poignant reminder of the challenges faced when tradition meets innovation in the wine industry. The proposal to emphasize native grapes, aligning with a "𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗼-like" model rather than a "𝗦𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗶𝗮" blend, underscores an intent to root Collio's identity firmly in its territory. But the execution of this strategy raises more questions than it answers. 𝗔 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗩𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 Collio enjoys a reputation for producing exceptional white wines, with a brand name that resonates internationally. The idea of promoting a wine exclusively from 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘃𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗹𝘀—Friulano, Ribolla and Malvasia—has a romantic appeal. It evokes the notion of authenticity, tradition, and a deep connection to the land. Yet, branding experts understand that a product's story is as important as its intrinsic qualities. If the narrative becomes fragmented—𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 "𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰" 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵—it risks alienating producers and confusing consumers. In this light, the title "True Collio" inadvertently casts a shadow on other legitimate producers, as though their wines are somehow "lesser". 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆? Some journalists and producers argue that the strength of Collio lies in its 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗶𝗿, not in the grape varieties per se. The soil, the climate, the tradition all contribute to the region's ability to produce exceptional wines, regardless of whether they are blends of native or international varietals. Why dilute the focus with divisive campaigns? The consensus is clear: Collio needs a unified front to strengthen its position in the market. The numbers tell their own story: Collio Bianco accounts for <10% of the region's production. Even if half of that comes from "autoctone" blends, it's still a small voice in a crowded room. Rather than amplify confusion, the entire territory should rally behind a single, cohesive message that celebrates Collio as a whole. 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 Collio should take a page from the playbook of Barolo, which successfully unified under a territorial brand before diving into nuances like cru and subzones. The first step is promoting the Collio name as synonymous with 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆, rather than subdividing it into factions. After all, the end goal is clear: a stronger identity that benefits all stakeholders. If producers focus on territorial promotion and clarity in messaging, Collio's wines—native blends and international varietals alike—will speak for themselves. Let's avoid the risk of creating unnecessary noise and instead build a legacy that reflects the region's excellence. #WineBusiness #Wine #Branding #Collio #Marketing #WineIndustry
