Question: What is the special soil in Friuli that produces those remarkable white wines?
Answer: Very old soils named Flysch (or locally as Ponca) and featuring layers of clay and sandstone, work marvellously to produce structured wines in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of northeast Italy. Top quality white wines are produced there especially from grapes grown in the Collio hills. Old special soils are important for producing top quality wines; compare the famous soils of the better known Chablis. Check out some of these elegant wines ranging from lively Ribolla Gialla to richer Friulano.
