The Cantina Produttori Cormòns was founded at the end of the sixties as an effort by some forward-thinking farmers to preserve the centuries-old traditions of one of the most diverse and under-appreciated wine-growing areas in the world. Today, more than 120 winegrowers of ages 24-86 are brought together by a project with a unified vision for the care of the vine and the idea that the future of wine should not be linked to international trends in style, but to the "tenacious enhancement of its territory". Making wine is an art, and their barrel cellar is perfect proof of this. Starting in the early 1980's, some of the most influential artists of the second half of the twentieth century were called on to decorate the dozens of old Slavonian oak barrels, creating a unique art gallery. Using a combination of age-old and 21st century technology, this passionate collective seems to defy the odds in producing large quantities of characterful, terroir-driven wine. Exhibit A is this Collio friulano, which offers the full spectrum of flavor and texture provided by this native variety grown in its ponca soils. It's the perfect balance of refreshment and refinement, and would be happy to share the table with any thoughtfully constructed meal.
