Historical notes

The banquet in honour of Gregory XII

This vine variety is very ancient and strictly linked to the Friulano territory, thus it represents an important part of the history of the ecological production. It is not to be confused with Verduzzo Trevigiano which is totally different and of more common thickness. The most well-known and oldest appearance was during a banquet in honour of Gregory XII, who governed the General Council in Friuli in 1409. In that occasion two different wines were served: Verduzzo of Faedis and Ramandolo of Torlano. Verduzzo (commonly called Verduz) historically it saw a biotype called green Verduzzo, gradually fallen into disuse, and the yellow Verduzzo which, both in the dry version and in the sweetish or sweet one, produces wines of great quality and softness. Verduzzo is the vine variety with which Ramandolo is produced, an important sweet friulano wine, obtained in Ramandolo where the DOCG is produced.
