OKÚS
WINES FROM THE VINEYARD
I AM
I am Luca Dellisanti. I was born and raised in Gorizia, on the border between Italy and Slovenia. I think of myself as belonging to two cultures, having grown up in a family where both languages are spoken. After studying and working in the field of genetics in the United Kingdom, I decided to follow my passion and return to cultivate my land in Friuli Venezia Giulia.
THE OKÚS PROJECT
The Okús (taste in Slovenian) project was developed together with Davide, a friend with whom I share the goal of bringing artisanal viticulture back into focus. This means producing grapes from vineyards which maintain a balance with the surrounding environment and are respectful of its fertility and health. I believe in sustainable artisanal viticulture that intervenes in the vineyard and in the cellar only if and when necessary. To pursue this objective, careful monitoring of both the vineyard and the wine is of utmost importance, as it allows to intervene as little as possible and with full knowledge of the facts.
