The experience includes a tasting of 3 selected wines within the splendid setting of Buttrio Castle, a place steeped in charm and history. Nestled in the Eastern Hills of Friuli, the 17th-century castle dominates the landscape, made up of orderly vineyards, rolling hills, and lush nature.

The tasting can take place outdoors in the panoramic garden overlooking the rows of vines, or, in the cooler seasons, in the cozy interior rooms of the castle.

Guests will be guided to discover three wines representative of our production: authentic expressions of the territory and the work in the vineyard. The glasses will be accompanied by a platter of typical cured meats and cheeses from our region, selected to best enhance the aromas and flavors of the wines.

An experience designed for those who wish to slow down and enjoy a moment of relaxation in a unique setting, where time seems suspended and every detail tells the story of passion for wine, the land, and hospitality.

About the host

Castello di Buttrio was founded in the 1990s, when Marco Felluga purchased these lands. Today it is led by his daughter Alessandra, the fifth generation of winemakers, who has undertaken a careful work of recovery and enhancement of the territory, respecting history and nature. The goal is to produce wines that reflect the identity of the Colli Orientali del Friuli. Alongside ancient vineyards, some dating back to 1933, new rows have been planted to grow native varieties such as Friulano, Ribolla Gialla, Refosco dal peduncolo rosso and Pignolo, together with Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Merlot, distributed over 26 hectares of vineyards around the castle, now completely renovated.

The basis of the company philosophy are the meticulous care of the vineyards, respect for nature and the enhancement of the terroir. The Ponca soil (marl and sandstone flysch) gives minerality, freshness and identity to the wines, including the Monblanc blend and the Uve Carate Bianco and Rosso reserves, and Ettaro Sauvignon. The Buttrio hills, famous for their whites, also allow a notable expression of the elegant and persistent reds.

Castello di Buttrio is also hospitality: welcoming rooms and typical cuisine in the Locanda offer guests an authentic experience of Friuli Venezia Giulia.
