Together with the sea flavour coming from a mix of savory and crispy fried fish, our Malvasia Pètris, with its sweet and fruity palate, becomes poetry of the Earth, as great Mario Soldati would have said. >> This is Carlo Cambi‘s beautiful comment, a famous journalist, close friend of the Venica family, regarding our Malvasia. Pètris is the toponym of the area where the vineyards are located. This name also reminds, with its sound, the Friulan word for stone, which is piere. Actually, the subsoil of that area is particularly rich in stones; some of them where used to build the original farmhouse of the family and we can still find them in the walls.
