Friuli Venezia Giulia Wines Take Center Stage in New York City on October 8

A full day of immersive tastings to highlight the diverse expressions of one of Italy's most exciting wine regions

NEW YORK, June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- UNI.DOC FVG —the union of all regional wine Consortia of Friuli Venezia Giulia— will be in New York on October 8 at Bryant Park Grill to welcome members of the wine trade and media to an immersive tasting event featuring a guided seminar followed by a walk-around tasting with producers from the region.

Known for its unique blend of Alpine, Adriatic, and Central European influences, Friuli Venezia Giulia is home to some of Italy's most celebrated white wines as well as increasingly acclaimed reds and orange wines. The event offers an exceptional opportunity to discover the authenticity, innovation, and cultural richness that define this northeastern Italian region.

The day will begin with an educational session exploring Friuli's signature grape varieties, subzones, and winemaking philosophies—both traditional and modern. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the region's terroir-driven approach and its growing reputation as a benchmark for quality and sustainability.

Following the seminar, guests will be welcomed into a walk-around tasting featuring producers from across the region, offering a comprehensive look at Friuli Venezia Giulia's diverse portfolio. From vibrant whites and refined reds to trending orange wines and elegant sparkling expressions, the tasting will showcase the breadth and depth of Friuli's winemaking. With growing consumer interest in authentic, terroir-driven wines, Friuli remains an underrepresented yet high-potential region. Its diverse styles align with today's demand for quality, versatility, and value—making them a strategic addition for trade professionals seeking distinctive offerings that stand out on shelves and wine lists.

"We're thrilled to bring the spirit of Friuli Venezia Giulia to New York," says Marco Rabino, President of UNI.DOC FVG. "This event is a chance to showcase not only the quality and range of our wines, but also the deep cultural and historical ties that shape our region's identity. We look forward to connecting with professionals who are eager to discover or revisit the uniqueness of Friulian wines."
