It 'usually hear that resurface memories looking at the old photos. Definitely true, but have you ever tried to close his eyes as he heard the Profumo di un wine? The scents bring to mind the speed of light, refer to relive moments and experiences ...
And today I want to take with me… Close your eyes and imagine a green valley between hills and vineyards in the silence of nature. A gentle wind blowing through the skin, and lost his eyes savoring the beauty in this life ... Well I am there with Cristian Specogna, brought back by the smell of a wine from Friuli to its production, he wanted to give me after our meeting. The Piccolit, oldest and most famous wine that I love for its peculiarity. White grape variety native to the eastern hills of Friuli. Its name originates from its small grapes, the production of which is so small due to the so-called aborto floreale. But that will never say?! Simply many flowers of the vine does not turn into fruit. And this is the result of a very limited production.
But I want to tell you better ...
I got them in the morning. It was very peaceful, and the fact of being in advance, a very rare thing for me as a hopeless laggard, allowed me to take a stroll in exploration. The environment was very pleasant. An up and down the hills they cheered him making me look lost as usual in the maze of thoughts on life. But the appointment time had come, and then made my way to the meeting with Cristian. There were no clear indications of office reception, and then at the sight of the first open door asked: "There is no?"Dawned out of the face of a smiling boy who greeted me… Cristian Specogna.
Together we went for a walk in the vineyards. It, worried of my heels, and I for nothing. Years of experience allow me to go anywhere, although I must confess that I love to walk barefoot on the grass!
He told me that his grandfather, returned from Switzerland, wanted to invest in Colli di Rocca Bernarda buying a plot of land. Graziano and Gianni, children, gave the first impetus to the company until handing over to him and his brother Michael.
Cristian is doing a great job of marketing, promoting his company and the Horn of territory 
Rosazzo internationally. This merit has been recognized in the allocation of 'Oscar Green 2010 for the category "Export your wine" the regional selection of Coldiretti. It’ promoter together with other young producers in the area of white wine "Blanc di Cuar”, that in local dialect means White Horn. This wine is made from grapes Tocai ... oops, I said?! One, because it is now known that the European Union has imposed on us not to say "Tocai", but "Friulano". It will not go down, but it is so! Now the Tokay, and 'Hungarian! We Italians, however, we now have the Blanc Cuar, more than a name poem! Member of the Ducal Court of the Duchy of Friuli Wines born in 1972 to Cividale, promotes and disseminates the Friulian viticulture.
The time was fast past chattering of my and his life. We were not made to miss anecdotes and laughter, and even two slices of salami with a glass of his wine. With pleasure I noticed that he used to sniff the food tasted ... habit that I really appreciate! As always proclaim the sense of smell is the sense of the emotions ... and together that morning, we have experienced many!
