This wine is ideal for those who appreciate structured and complex whites, offering a perfect balance between aromatic intensity and freshness.

Sourced from carefully selected vineyards, the Friulano - Sauvignonasse - Exto reveals on the nose hints of white-fleshed fruit, wildflowers, and slight nuances of aromatic herbs, typical of the Sauvignonasse variety, also known as Tocai Friulano in this region.

On the palate, it is smooth yet well-structured, with a lively acidity that brings freshness and vivacity. The flavors of green apple and pear blend with a subtle minerality that reappears in the long and pleasant finish. Thanks to its elegance and versatility, it is a wine that pairs beautifully with fish dishes, such as baked sea bass or seafood risotto, but also with rich and spicy vegetarian dishes.

Winery history
The winery bears the family nickname "Dolfo," and the estate's history is linked to the Skočaj family. The modern approach to production was established at the end of the 20th century, when wines labeled DOLFO first appeared on the market; the official page notes the appearance of DOLFO‑labelled bottles in 1989. Over the years the estate has expanded its vineyards and winemaking facilities in the Brda/Ceglo area.
Production philosophy
It favors manual vineyard care and cultivation practices that emphasize territorial quality; at the same time production is described as conventional, using natural organic fertilizers and paying careful attention to soil management and exposure.
Terroir and vineyards
It is located in Ceglo, in the Goriška Brda area, with vineyards that extend partly into Slovenia and partly into Italy. The local soils are characterized by the so-called "opoka", a calcareous/clayey sedimentary formation that contributes to the wines' sapidity; the vineyards are planted on terraces with sunny exposures and elevations in the area ranging from approximately 80 to 200 meters.
Awards and recognitions
