Fabio is one of eight producers making wine from Tazzelenghe. Thanks to Fabio and his friends, this ultra-rare Friulian red wine grape is the rise. The name means "The Tongue-Cutter" in the local dialect. The grape has an enormous personality, packed with complexity, acid, and tannin.
Before modern improvements in winemaking and wine growing, the only way to tame Tazzelenghe's exuberance was time. Listen to the full interview with Fabio D'Attimis Maniago Marchio, the son of a Count and the 18th generation to steward his family's land, to learn why he describes today's Tazzelenghe wines with one word: Elegance.
