Following innovation in the 1960s of temperature control and German winemaking techniques, Friuli provided Italy with it's first ever truly fresh and fruity white wines. The wines produced in the region represent a tiny fraction of Italy's total production, however the DOC wines produced in Friuli is one of Italy's highest.
