6 Bottles of Sauvignon Collio Marco Felluga 2018

The history

Marco Felluga and Russiz Superiore are two of the most prestigious wineries of Collio region: they have an enduring relationship with the wine – began over a century ago, in the second half of 1800, in Istria – that can be considered a true dynasty of winemakers, that has been able to exploit the potential of some varieties and territories suited to the vine.

In the 30’s, after the World War I, Giovanni Felluga decided to move to Friuli and more precisely, in the Collio. Marco, the penultimate of his seven children, continued the family business and in 1956 he founded the company which has his name. Thanks to him, who trained as a young man at the prestigious school of oenology of Conegliano, we have the path of innovation, quality and research.

The balance managed between innovation and tradition have made his company a benchmark for the entire territory. Today, his son continues on the path of absolute quality: Roberto represents the fifth generation of winemakers and leads both companies, Marco Felluga in Gradisca d’Isonzo  and Russiz Superiore in Capriva del Friuli.
