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 COMPANY
Between past and future, perfectly integrated into contemporary times. This is how one could define one of the most representative wineries in all of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, particularly in its Eastern Hills. A story in continuous evolution, beginning over fifty years ago with a small amount of bulk wine, and continuing today with the construction of the new winery, a functional place for unique production in terms of quality consistency.
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 isn't worth tasting.
And so we trace back to the origins, when first grandfather Min and then father Livio Zorzettig started the agricultural business now led by brothers Massimo and Marco Zorzettig, who are 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, which shield against the coldest winds, and warmed by the southern breezes coming from the Adriatic Sea, plants are cultivated that produce exceptional fruits, rich in every subtle nuance. Grapes that, after being harvested at the right maturity, are transformed in the modern winery spread over two levels and perfectly functional for all production processes: the basement houses the fermentation rooms, drying rooms, barrel cellar, and aging rooms, while the ground floor contains the warehouse and bottling plant.
The wines labeled “La Tunella,” where history, memory, and traditions coexist with new and creative energies, bring to life a solid and intriguing range, capable of spanning from classic whites and reds to blends, dessert wines, and single-varietals: bottles resulting from a careful enhancement of the territory and all its best characteristics.
