Colli Orientali del Friuli Pinot Nero DOC 2022 (750 ml.) La Tunella
The Pinot Nero from La Tunella comes from grapes harvested at the best degree of sugar and phenolic ripeness.

It is a red wine with a strong, characteristic, delicate aroma, highlighted by raspberry and forest fruits. It has a dry, slightly aromatic, pleasant flavor, with a subtle bitter note, and is velvety. It is a perfect accompaniment to white meats and poultry in general, fatty fish, and also with sauce.

La Tunella
In the lush heart of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, among the hills of the Colli Orientali del Friuli, stands La Tunella, a winery that has masterfully blended modernity and tradition. Here, the land tells ancient stories of native grape varieties and a passion for viticulture that is passed down from generation to generation.
La Tunella stands out for a production approach that, while looking to the future with cutting-edge technologies, never forgets the deep roots that sink into the Friulian territory. The grapes cultivated, such as Friulano, Sauvignon, and Refosco, are carefully selected to create wines that precisely and deeply express the unique characteristics of this land.
Among the main labels, the Friulano and Biancosesto stand out, two wines that embody the essence of the winery. The Friulano presents itself with a vibrant freshness and an aromatic complexity that captivates, while the Biancosesto, a skillful blend of white varieties, enchants with its elegance and enveloping structure. These wines, with their notes of ripe fruit, white flowers, and aromatic herbs, invite you to discover the best of Friulian winemaking.
La Tunella is a reality that embodies the perfect synthesis of tradition and innovation, a place where every bottle is a journey into the heart of Friuli. Let yourself be seduced by their labels on Vino45: an unmissable opportunity to explore Friulian whites with a touch of elegance and concentration.

THE WINE
The Pinot Noir from La Tunella is made from grapes harvested at the best level of sugar and phenolic ripeness. The must is left to macerate and ferment in steel tanks in contact with the skins while its slow maturation takes place in French oak barrels. It is a red wine with a marked, characteristic, delicate aroma, highlighted by raspberry and berries. It has a dry, slightly aromatic, pleasant taste, with a subtle bitter note, and it is velvety. It is a perfect accompaniment to white meats and poultry in general, fatty fish, and even with sauces.
THE COMPANY
Between past and future, perfectly integrated into contemporary life. This is how one could define one of the most representative wineries in all of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and particularly in its Eastern Hills. A story in continuous evolution, which began over fifty years ago with a little bulk wine, and continues today with the construction of the new winery, a functional place for a unique production of consistent quality.
From Friulano to Ribolla Gialla, from Malvasia to Schioppettino, up to Pignolo and Picolit, passing through Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, “Biancosesto” and Sauvignon, there is no wine from “La Tunella” that is not worth tasting.
And so we trace back to the origins, when first Grandpa Min and then Dad Livio Zorzettig started the agricultural company now led by brothers Massimo and Marco Zorzettig, the latter assisted by their mother Gabriella.
Currently, there are about seventy hectares of vineyards, of which 30% are planted with red grape varieties, while the other 70% is planted with white varieties. On soils composed of sandstones and marls, in a unique microclimate particularly favorable to viticulture, protected to the north by the Julian Prealps, a shield against the coldest winds, and warmed by southern breezes from the Adriatic Sea, vines are cultivated that produce exceptional fruits, rich in every smallest nuance. Bunches that, after being harvested only at the right maturation, are transformed in the modern winery distributed over two levels and perfectly functional for all production processes: the basement houses the fermentation rooms, drying rooms, the barrel cellar, and aging rooms, while the ground floor hosts the warehouse and the bottling plant.
The wines labeled “La Tunella”, where history, memory, and traditions coexist with new and creative energies, give life to a solid and intriguing range, capable of spanning from classic whites and reds to blends, passito wines, and single varietals: bottles that are the result of careful enhancement of the territory and all its best characteristics.
