Identity

I was asked «Why don’t you think of starting your own winery, Michele? ».
«Another winery? Are not there enough? » was my answer.
Then, together with my brother Matteo and Sirio Anfore, who was longing to experiment with the new prototypes of backed clay amphoras, I said: «Let us try»

So, we got aware that some of our winemaking processes had produced incredible wines. At that point, an eastern market advisor stimulated us: «Well, such wines can aspire to be appreciated in milieu of absolute prestige. » 

At the end, when we made acquaintance of Raffaele thanks to common friends, a big spark went off.

.. “It is also because in the neighbourhood of our winery two tributaries of the river Corno flow, once Rio Claro, in Friulian Roi Clâr.”

Manufacturing process

Roi Clâr grapes come from mature and, in some cases, centennial vines. Our wine research aims at obtaining unusual and courageous products without at the same time abandoning their sense of good and health.

Our wines are not characterized by high volatile acidity; we always try to carefully manage and control all the possible oxidation-reduction phenomena.

The Linea Primo wines are crisp, straightforward, and intriguing but at the same time genuine, whereas the Linea Cru wines are complex, mature, honest, deep, soft, and mineral.

“No certification exists that may offer more guarantees than those given by the winemaker himself.”
- Raffaele Petris
