This grape is not found anywhere else in the world. Italy is therefore proud of the Italian wines made with it. Few countries breathe wine more than Italy. The Friulano grape is used by a limited number of winemakers. Zenato, Alturis, Luisa, Zucollo, and Le Vigne di Zamo come to mind. The most popular wine made from this Friulano is Zenato Custoza. Zenato Custoza is named after the village of the same name, located just southeast of Lake Garda. But you could also consider Alturis Friulano. Not far from the Austrian and Slovenian borders, in northeastern Italy, we find the Alturis winery. Another popular variety is Luisa Friulano. Friulano is the grape of Friuli.","products":[{"product_id":"zenato-custoza","title":"Zenato Custoza","description":"Zenato Custoza is named after the village of the same name, located just southeast of Lake Garda.
