It was among the rst wine estates, Bernarda and is considered a landmark in Friuli. Situated in the superb location of Rocca Bernarda, it enjoys a unique microclimate and boasts spectacular terraced vineyards protected by the Julian Alps. The production philosophy of the winery is clear: territory, native grapes, and wines with the strong imprint of Friuli. At Rocca Bernarda, that means embracing time-honored tradition with production of the region’s native wines: Friulano, Ribolla Gialla, Glera, Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso, Pignolo, and the renowned Picolit varietal, described by Forbes Magazine as a “precious commodity”. Rocca Bernarda boasts the oldest Picolit vineyard in Friuli, thanks to the illustrious Perusini family, proprietors of the estate until 1975. They were strong advocates of the grape, saving it from extinction and exalting it with a famous treatise in 1902. Their passion for Picolit was ultimately justied - When Countess Giuseppina Perusini Antonini hosted Luigi Veronelli there in 1956, the icon of food and wine journalism tasted several vintages and remarked, «There does not exist a more noble wine in Italy than this one.» Their barrique- aged reds remain in the historic cellar underneath the villa. These have the character and complexity of great wine – a layered spiciness, a wild undertone that renders it vibrant, and a juciness that nishes in great balance and Rocca Bernarda - the courtyard substance. The whites are fragrant with fruity and oral notes, maintaining the classic imprint of their grapes. Well- rounded and pleasing with balanced acidity, they deliver perfect harmony between mouth and nose, supported by a distinct minerality that reects the region’s terroir. Today, Rocca Bernarda keeps their centuries-old heritage of winemaking current, believing that sustainable viticulture and oenology are of fundamental importance. Their wines’ character and essence are deeply rooted in the signature soil, a mixture of sandstone and marl, which yields complex wines that reect the region’s character with an unmistakable minerality. The location of the spectacular terraced vineyards dates back to 1559, and they occupy approximately 39 hectares, most of which are newly planted at a density of 5,400 vines. To ensure optimal quality, plants are obtained through clonal and massal selection so vines are already acclimated to the area, and yields are kept low.
