AboutGruppo Martellozzo
Gruppo Martellozzo’s family story began in 1899 in the Padua countryside with Giovanni Martellozzo, then passed through his son Mario to a third generation. Piera Martellozzo has led the family company for more than twenty-five years. Now based in San Quirino in the Friuli Grave, the group works across the neighbouring wine regions of Friuli-Venezia Giulia, eastern Veneto and Trentino.
The group works with local grape varieties and introduced an organic wine range in 1998. Its Santa Maria collection is dedicated to Mamma Martellozzo.
Martellozzo Santa Maria 2022 Friuli Bianco
Italian White
$18.99
White flowers, apricot and mugwort accompany delicate dried-fruit and bread-crust notes. The palate brings ripe fruit, aromatic herbs and honey. Made from white grapes grown in north-eastern Italy, the wine ferments at about fifteen to sixteen degrees Celsius and briefly rests on fine lees for added complexity and softness. Suggested pairings include raw seafood, shellfish salads and pasta with fish-based sauces.
Piera 1899 2020 Terre Magre Ribolla Gialla
Italian White
$35.99
White rose, white peach, apple and pear shape a delicate, fruit-led bouquet, with a touch of citrus zest adding freshness. The palate is dry and finely balanced, carrying clean orchard fruit into a gently saline, refreshing finish. Serve with seafood antipasti, grilled vegetables, fresh cheeses or light pasta dishes.
Terre Magre 2021 Merlot Friuli DOC
Italian Red
$33.99
Intense ruby in the glass, with ripe red fruit moving toward cherry, plum and a touch of delicate preserve. Dry, smooth and full-bodied, the palate is balanced by moderate acidity and sweet, finely textured tannins. The fruit remains generous but controlled, carrying softly into a rounded, approachable finish.
