It's December and Christmas time is just around the corner. So, if the last minute rush looking for the perfect gift is haunting you already, Cantine Aperte a Natale – Wine Cellars Open for Christmas will solve all of your problems! Thanks to Movimento Turismo del Vino Friuli Venezia Giulia, all through the month many local winemakers around the region will keep their doors open to visitors, and also their shops will open everyday (most of them during weekends, too), all day: there you'll find fabulous Christmas boxes with local wines and products, suitable even for the pickiest palate. The event, originally designed to bring winelovers closer to producers and to let wine tourists discover all Friuli Venezia Giulia's beauties and delicacies, will thus take a Christmas twist to satisfy their want for excellent red, white and sparkling wines... and typical local food.
Home made marmelades, local cheeses, salami and hams, cookies and typical Christmas cakes will match the winemakers' finest wine bottles for an unforgettable present. Many winemaking facilities will set up special events, too: wine tastings and wine cellars' tours can be booked beforehand, with some also offering a taste of local salamis and ham to be paired with wines, some other matching them with frico and polenta. And some shops will welcome their guests with a hot glass of mulled wine... Not to mention the beautiful hamlets nearby many winemakers's, definitely worth visiting on Christmas time with all their festive decorations and nativity scenes. At the Castle in Porcìa there will also be an art exhibit, with works by Valter Trevisiol, up to January 8th.
