AZIENDA AGRICOLA FIEGL

The COLLIO GORIZIANO extends through the northern hill-chain of Gorizia's province nearby the Slovenian border. The ground is composed of marl (called PONKA) and Eocene sandstone. They are perfect for wine growing. As also the climate, which is made particularly temperate by the closeness of Adriatic sea and airy by the presence of the northeast winds (BORA).

Its historical origin may be traced back to the sale contract of a vineyard called “Meja” in 1782 on the name of Fiegl Valentino. After more than two centuries the brothers Alessio, Giuseppe and Rinaldo are running the company consisting of 30 hectares of land, 25 of which dedicated to vineyards.
