Bragato: Sauvignon Blanc 2021

I met Antonio Bragato, who was born in Germany but is Friulian through and through, at ProWein 2025. He is a successful restaurant owner in Berlin but teamed up 20 years ago with Gianni Maccari, who was cellar master at Livio Felluga for many years and now runs his own winery Ronco della Rocca. The trained agronomist and oenologist is considered one of the best-educated viticulture experts in Friuli. This knowledge of his own 12 hectares of vineyards, as well as the leased plots, and the radical precision in carrying out every task shape the clear style and reliable quality of the wines that Antonio Bragato creates there together with him.

Starting with the 2019 vintage, a new era for Bragato begins. Since then, the duo has focused on an even more rigorous selection of the oldest vines from the coolest and best sites. The results of the "Nuova Edizione" can truly be seen and tasted. They are even more radical in complexity and finesse.

In Antonio’s white wines, all elements – acidity, low pH values, opulent extracts, juiciness, richness of aromas – are impressively present. At the same time, despite their richness, the wines feel cool, lively, and elegant.
