The name Faralta comes from the Germanic tribe called Longobards who ruled Friuli and the northeast of Italy after the Romans. It means ‘high farm’ as the wine is produced by using the grapes varieties growing on the highest parts of our hills.

The 30% does fermentation and fining in French oak barrel. Weekly battonage for 12 months before the blend. Finally, 6 months of ageing before bottling.
