The Castellada Friulano makes a relatively short maceration on skins of only 4 days. This is enough to extract a very interesting material for a wine of obvious body and structure.

The taste develops between notes of ripe peaches, herbs and spicy notes and a mouthfeel of great vigor and aromatic volume. Fresh, expressive wine with archaic charm.

From the producer

La Castellada

Giuseppe Bensa and the origin of La Castellada

It was 1954 when Giuseppe Bensa returned to Oslavia after his period of emigration to Switzerland. With the money he earned he bought a vineyard and a small house that he turned into a tavern. In time, the proceeds from the business allowed him to buy more vineyards, so that by the end of the 1970s the estate covered 10 hectares of land.

Giorgio and Nicolò, Giuseppe's sons began at that time to follow the cellar and farm work, until they chose in 1985 to start bottling their own wine, sold before then only in bulk. Thus the farm "La Castellada" was born, where the traditional Collio Friulano wine has always been produced. Wines of great finesse and intensity, able to mature over time, children of a unique terroir.
