Set between the Alps and the sea - where the Friuli region meets the Adriatic at Aquileia - in a land where wine growing was introduced back in Roman times, it enjoys conditions that are ideal for growing grapes and making wine: the summer breezes off the sea, the protection afforded by the Alps, the considerable changes in temperature and the variety of the soil that leaves behind its clay and gravel composition in favour of sand as it drops off towards the sea. The estate is a unique piece of wine country, a garden-like expanse of vineyards yielding wines known for their distinctive traits: fragrance and aromatic fullness.","brand":"Ca Bolani","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44503576379563,"sku":"19829","price":9.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/ca-bolani-prosecco-brut_19829_1.jpg?v=1773671373"},{"product_id":"ca-bolani-alturio-refosco-2016","title":"Ca Bolani Alturio Refosco 2016","description":"Still red wine from Friuli Aquileia DOC, 13.5% ABV, produced by Ca Bolani, 2016 vintage. 100% Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso.
