A Historic Winery with Distinct Wines, a Noble Villa, and Authentic Italian Cuisine

Winery Steeped in 17th Century History

Villa Fossa Mala is a stunning courtyard structure that dates back to the 17th century. This historic site features a charming drinking fountain, grand arches, a centuries-old magnolia tree, and cobblestone paths surrounding the ancient stables. Owned by Katia Roncadin, the estate is dedicated to cultivating vineyards and producing high-quality wines from Friuli. The property includes stables, 15 guest rooms, a restaurant, a wine shop, and a wine cellar. Visitors are welcome year-round to savor the wines and appreciate the breathtaking natural surroundings.

Unique Microclimate for Exceptional Grapes

Fossamala Winery began its project in 2003 in the distinctive Grave del Friuli DOC region. The soil, rich in clay and silt, combined with a unique microclimate, creates ideal conditions for vine cultivation. Initially, the estate had just six hectares of vineyards, which have now expanded to 36 hectares. Manual labor is employed to maintain the vines and protect the environment. The Guyot training method is used, resulting in low yields of high-quality grapes, including Chardonnay, Friulano, Sauvignon, Traminer Aromatico, Pinot Grigio, Merlot, Prosecco, and Ribolla Gialla.

State-of-the-Art Cellar with Impressive Capacity

The winery selects the finest grapes to produce a range of red, white, and sparkling wines. The cellar is equipped to handle 9,000 hectoliters of wine annually, with all processes—fermentation, aging, and bottling—carried out using advanced technology. A photovoltaic installation on the roof generates energy for wine production. The estate's wines are well-regarded, making it a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts seeking a memorable experience.
