The wines of i Clivi are rooted in the picturesque landscape of Friuli, nestled between the Collio Goriziano and the eastern hills of Udine, known as Colli Orientali. Here, on sunny slopes—clivi meaning "slopes"—they tend to 12 hectares of certified organic vineyards, where indigenous varieties such as Ribolla, Friulano, Verduzzo, and Malvasia thrive alongside the international grape, Merlot. These vineyards, some aged between 60 and 80 years, serve as a cherished heritage, a reminder of the profound responsibility they bear in both safeguarding and crafting wines on this hallowed land. Through their meticulous care and dedication, they honor this legacy, allowing the unique terroir to speak through their wines, which proudly bear two distinct D.O.C. denominations.
