Product/Service Highlights

La Viarte

“La Viarte”  - “Springtime” in Friulian – is a winery that extends over a total surface of 101 acres (41 hectares). 64 acres (26 hectares) are of productive vineyard  and  the remaining part has been preserved as woodland for the natural balance of the environment and microclimate. We are located in the districts of Prepotto and Corno di Rosazzo (DOC Friuli Colli Orientali), at a medium height of 400 feet above sea level a few hundred yards from the Slovenian Border.  It took more than 10 years to carve the terraces and plant all the vineyards, and in 1986 we could release to the market the whole range. Alberto Piovan and his staff focus on local heirloom varieties, such as Friulano, Ribolla Gialla, Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso and Schioppettino di Prepotto, and has embraced the passion, perfectionism, and technical capabilities to guarantee healthy vines and balanced wines. We also produce Pinot Bianco, Chardonnay and R&ograve;i (Merlot and Cabernet), and also rare varieties as Pignolo and Tazzelenghe. Additionally the indigenous grape, we also produce Sauvignon, Cabernet, Merlot and Si&ugrave;m, a dessert wine blend of Picolit and Verduzzo Friulano: “vino passito” of great finesse and concentration. Its name stays for “dream”.
Only in the best vintages, we present two special wines, which we call Friulano Liende and Sauvignon Liende. “Liende” means Legend and these wines bound to become legend, as are made with select fruit from more than one of our oldest and finest varieties. The different maturation periods and winemaking processes allow us to craft a wine which is both the expression of tradition and innovation. Arteus (Riesling Renano, Chardonnay and Tocai Friulano) is originated from a desire to stand out of the crowd and truly display the terroir, in which we strongly believe. Recently, besides the still wines, we presented La Viarte Ros&egrave;, a sparkling brut ros&egrave; from Schioppettino grape, a wonderful native variety of Friuli Venezia Giulia, and a Grappa, from the Sauvignon Liende.
