Friuli Grave Riserva Casarsa della Delizia 1966
This is a 1966 red wine from the Italian producer Cantina Sociale Cooperativa Casarsa della Delizia. Classified as a Riserva, this wine originates from the Grave del Friuli appellation. The label notes that the grapes come from vineyards situated on the lands of ancient fiefs on the right bank of the Tagliamento river, referencing historical locations such as Zoppola, San Vito, Sesto al Reghena, Valvasone, Casarsa della Delizia, and Cordovado.
The Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, often simply called Friuli, features a unique geography that creates an ideal climate for viticulture. The Alps provide a natural shield against cold northern winds, while the Adriatic Sea brings in mild air from the south. Within this region lies Friuli Grave, one of the largest and most productive DOC areas. The vineyards here are planted on gravel and stony plains situated between the mountains and the sea.
This wine is produced under the simple designation of Cabernet, a collective term frequently used on wine labels for grape varieties in the Cabernet family, primarily Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Historically in Italy, particularly in northern regions, it has been common practice to classify and bottle wines under this general name. A wine labeled as such may consist of pure Cabernet Franc, pure Cabernet Sauvignon, or a blend of the two. The Cabernet family has a global presence, having successfully adapted to a wide variety of climates and soils.
The history of the wine
Below, you can delve into the history of this wine — its producer, grape, area, and region.
Friuli-Venezia Giulia
Friuli-Venezia Giulia (often just called Friuli) is considered by many to be Italy's absolute top center for white wine.
Geographically, the region is unique: the Alps shield against cold northerly winds, while the Adriatic Sea sends mild air in from the south. It creates a perfect climate for both crisp white wines such as Pinot Grigio and the complex, stomach-fermented "orange wines" for which the region is world famous.
When this wine was made, the world looked very different. Here are some of the stories that unfolded while this bottle quietly aged in its cellar.
