Aquileia

Vineyards Amidst Roman Ruins and the Friulian Lagoon

Aquileia, a UNESCO World Heritage site renowned for its extraordinary Roman archaeological heritage, is also a wine denomination overlooking the Friulian plain towards the sea. Refosco, Merlot, and Chardonnay are among the most widespread grapes in a region that blends ancient history with modern viticulture. The local wineries offer tastings that can easily be paired with a visit to the archaeological remains of the basilica and the Roman forum. Book your tasting at the same price as the winery.
