Antico Broilo

Friuli Colli Orientali DOC

Giovanni and Massimo Duri are the 4th & 5th generation to cultivate Antico Broilo’s 6ha in the commune of Prepotto. “We made a conscious choice to cultivate only varieties that were already present on the estate, to keep our history in the vineyard.” This means old vines and massal selections of four native varieties that scarcely survived the 20th century: friulano, ribolla gialla, refosco dal peduncolo rosso, and schioppettino. Organic farming, tightly controlled yields, hand harvests, and minimal cellar intervention—native yeasts, racking by gravity flow, little added SO2, brief skin maceration for the whites, long aging in wood for reds.

Antico Broilo 2020 Ribolla Gialla DOC

Ribolla gialla has been grown in this region since the 13th century, and this wine comes from vines that are over 50 years in age, grown at 200 meters above sea level on red clay. Similar to the friulano, the grapes are macerated for several days before being pressed and fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel. The wine is then raised an additional 10 months in stainless after malolactic conversion is complete.
