This small area named Colli Orientali del Friuli, dating back to the Eocene era, with its microclimate and its exposure, is characterised by a sudden and clear diversity from the rest of the territory of Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

The Colutta Farm –“Bandut” is named after an ancient piece of land bought by Antonio Colutta in the early 1900´s, which now belongs to Giorgio Colutta. It produces quality wines in its vineyards of Buttrio, Manzano and Rosazzo, which belong to the prestigious “Parco della vite e del vino” (Vine and wine park) in the Colli Orientali del Friuli.
