The zone completely covers the municipalities of Latisana, Lignano Sabbiadoro, Palazzolo dello Stella, Precenicco, Pocenia, Rivignano, Ronchis, Teor and Varmo, as well as parts of the municipalities of Castions di Strada, Morsano al Tagliamento and Muzzana del Turgnano in the province of Udine. The area is located in the Isonzo basin on the Adriatic coast with the famous seaside resort of Lignano and is connected to the Veneto region in the west. The soil consists of sandy loess partially mixed with gravel and is particularly suitable for red wines.
As honorary chairman of the Domäne Wachau, it is the easiest and quickest way for me to access the wein.plus encyclopaedia when I have questions. The certainty of receiving well-founded and up-to-date information here makes it an indispensable guide.
