Split by the Tagliamento river, Grave del Friuli extends from Pordenone to Udine, the alluvial (gravelly) soil, washed down from the mountains eons ago, gives the region its name. The Castellargo winery, founded in 1978, deftly blends Friulano, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay from their cooler plains and riverside vineyards, forming an aromatic, yet supple cuvée.
