La Tunella Friulano 2025 displays a radiant straw-yellow hue with elegant greenish reflections. The bouquet is harmonious, floral, and fruity, featuring notes of pear, wildflowers, and acacia blossoms, along with that unmistakable, subtle hint of bitter almond characteristic of the Friulano variety.
On the palate, the wine is dry and velvety, striking a fine balance between roundness and crisp acidity. Flavors of white fruit remain bright and succulent, underscored by a subtle minerality that reflects the nature of the soil. The finish is persistent, once again revealing that signature touch of bitter almond.
La Tunella is a family-run estate in Friuli, established in the 1960s by "Grandpa" Min and his son Livio, and now managed by Massimo and Marco Zorzettig. The vineyards span seventy hectares, all located within the Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC.
The grapes are grown in the distinctive *ponca* soil of the Colli Orientali—a blend of sandstone and marl that imparts a mineral-driven structure to the wine. Friulano—known as Tocai Friulano until 2006—is one of the region’s premier indigenous white grape varieties. The wine is aged in stainless steel tanks.
