Azienda Agricola Cencig Nicola&Mauro, a family run company of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region, from the town of Manzano in the Colli Orientali del Friuli zone.

Thanks to favourable climate and soil conditions the eastern hills of Friuli (in Italian Colli Orientali) are considered one the best vinegrowing zones in the whole Friuli Venezia Giulia. Mauro, an enologist by profession, together with his brother Nicola runs 10 hectares of vineyards.

Mauro, hospitable and straightforward, immediately gained our trust. We were not disappointed with him, because wine made by him is as honest as the grower. Sauvignon is distinguished by an aromatic bouquet, Refosco is deep and full bodied, Verduzzo is sweet and delicate. Enologist’s professional knowledge is skillfully combined with care of vineyards and attention to the quality of his wines.

He is undoubtedly a producer which has good prospects for development and we will definitely come back to him.
