Midolini

Midolini is not only the name of a historic family of Friuli and its winery, but a story about passion, love and dreams that have become reality. Located in Manzano in the province of Udine, between Attimis and Buttrio, the Midolini farm covers an area of ​​100 hectares, owned by the family, in the Hills, of which 70 are devoted to vineyards with the Colli Orientali del Fiuli designation of origin. To date, 32 hectares are cultivated with vines. Midolini has always aimed at the production of quality wines with a very low yield of 40 hectoliters per hectare, about 90,000 bottles produced. Passion, elegance and quality are the predominant characteristics of the Rosacroce Midolini wines. The Midolini family offers also a flagship product, of the highest standard and unique: Asperum, a sweet and sour balsamic sauce obtained cooking a great must of the Doc grapes of the eastern hills of Friuli, since June 2007 registered in the list of the agri–food products defined traditional with a special decree of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Forestry. The "balsameria", that started with only 25 small barrels more than fifty years ago, just for fun and for the passion of Lino Midolini, has now become the world’s largest with about 2,300 small barrels, a record that earned him the prestigious quote in the The Guinness Book of World Records since 1998. Asperum is made ​​with native Friulian grapes (such as Refosco and Tocai) and is aged in small barrels made of 7 different precious Woods until 30 years of age. The Midolini company produces also Grappa cru from Chardonnay grapes. In its 50 it is a distillate of great strength but at the same time of great harmony.

Le Vigne di Zamò

A couple of years ago a new winery opened, entirely underground, which ensures the highest functionality – vineyards do the rest of the job. Our great advantage consists of the opportunity to draw on three different terroirs, to say, Rosazzo, Buttrio and Rocca Bernarda.

The Vinifications are always separated, initially, also to make statistical surveys useful for a more specific consciousness to each area and grape variety. Only after, we perform blendings on the basis of the various types. Rosazzo has a warmer microclimate, almost Mediterranean, so much so that even olive trees grow here. The sea, rather close, causes undoubted beneficial effects, at the expense, perhaps, of the temperature range, not too pronounced. In Rosazzo, in effect, we grow most of our red grapes and wines are large, powerful, energetic.

Among the white grapes, Tocai Friulano finds its space, taking from the color of the hills of Rosazzo the originality of character that sets it apart. We focus on red wines bluntly, both to continue down the path already started with Ronco dei Roseti (first red wine from Friuli awarded with 3 Glasses by the Gambero Rosso Guide in the year 1988), and to experiment with the possibilities given by native vines such as Pignolo and Refosco. In fact, one of our goals, is exactly to employ native grapes to produce wines of real personality, of not easy uniformity.

It should be considered that the 55 hectares of vines we own, including properties and rentals, as much as 40% is occupied by varieties of red grapes, definitely a percentage above the regional average. This does not mean, of course, to leave out white wines, that are an indispensable basis for our justified ambitions. In fact, even about white wines, our philosophy follows a consistent path and in line with the choices operated in the “red sector”. Although these varieties are of international footprint, even well rooted in the Friuli area, such as Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio, the greatest hopes and attention focus on native grapes.
