our land, our wines.

Borgo San Daniele

Page 2: Borgo san daniele presentation

Do it better, not bigger

18 hectares in two DOCs- Collio and

Isonzo- in Italy’s northeastern most region

Friuli. Here, along the border with

Slovenia, the hills meet the river plains of

the Isonzo and Judrio rivers. It is here

that our wines are born.

Keeping it small teaches you select and

reflect

The value of heritage

The land is an inheritance and we have a

duty to preserve it. On our grandfather’s

lands we have embraced the best

practices of biodynamic viticulture and

have always left grass cover in the

vineyards to check the vigor of the vines in

check and preserving the natural balance

of the soils.

think it…

then do it.

Green harvesting and crop thinning.

Manual harvest at ripeness. Long

fermentation on the lees. Malolactic

fermentation. Bottling unfiltered.

These are the keys to preserving the

crunchy freshness which we want to be

the hallmark of Borgo San Daniele wines.

Wine with a memory

Making sustainable choices drives us on.

We do not use chemical preparations in

our vineyards- only copper sulfites and and

infusions of equisetum and dandelion.

During vinification we usa a small scale

solera system to recuperate parts of the

yeast that we then use to inoculate new

musts- thus preserving the wine’s DNA

over time

wine unplugged

Jiasik Bianco

Jiasik RossoJiasik is the name of a small hamlet near

Borgo San Daniele where life seems to be

move slower and where the sound of the

nearby Judrio dominates over the bustle of

cars. We wanted to replicate this life in a

wine- an unplugged wine for casual

moments.

A limited number of labels which are the

expression of a viticulture respectful of

the environment and a personal

interpretation of the native varietals of

Friuli-Venezia Giulia; a style and terroir

which is our own.

from vision to wine

Arbis Blanc

Arbis RòsBorn as homage to the grass-covered

vineyards and to the Friulan language we

speak. Arbis (herbs in the Friulano language)

smelled of earth before it smelled of wine. Our

vision of the top that Friuli can offer.

Arbis Blanc- Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot

Bianco and Friulano

Arbis Ròs- Pignolo

Who is Borgo San Daniele?

Borgo San Daniele is the materialization of our

passion that has deep and traditional roots and

infuses our daily lives with scents and flavors. The

vineyards reveal to us the wisdom and the fascination

of nature. In the cellar tasting a wine that is aging

inspires those few words that start the day off on the

right path. Every vintage has a season that we guard

and bottle. We love that a wine turns back the

seasons, but at the same time it imposes itself on

them with its own times of waiting, of caring, of work

and fruitfulness. We love the patience of waiting for

the grape as it grows and ripens on the vine. We love

to lay aside its juice and wait for all the time it needs

to become wine. A wine of the soil- our soil- from a

countryside that fills one’s gaze with its natural

beauty.
