Small and maintaining a human scale, the estate covers a total of 18 hectares of organically farmed vines alongside Mount Quarin. Aransat is Friulian slang for orange. Three generations with deep ties to the local area, Cormons, 12 kilometers from the Slovenian border. This is a family affair with the younger generation inspired to take over for their parents after enjoying a bottle of Friulano in the family vineyard as a teen. This is Italy after all. The family focuses on farming indigenous varieties and is committed to a natural lifestyle that is in harmony with its surroundings.
