11.21.23 | Tastemaker Dinner w/ Jacopo Gregorat of Nec Otium & Ronco Del Gnemiz
Jacopo Gregorat grew up in the prism of exceptional viticulture and winemaking. His mother, Serena Palazzolo, and stepfather, Christian Patat, are the proprietors of one of Friuli’s greatest wineries, Ronco del Gnemiz. In addition to working endless harvests at his home of Ronco del Gnemiz, Jacopo has gained incredible experience working harvests all over the world at exceptional wineries.
Nec-octium Luigino Balozio is a brand new project made in the cellar at Ronco del Gnemiz by Jacopo Gregorat and Christian Patat together. Lovers of Ronco del Gnemiz wines will be drawn to these exceptional, mineral-driven, expressive whites of the Colli Orientali. Coming from some of the greatest sites in Friuli, Nec-Otium Luigino Balozio Sauvignon, Friulano and Chardonnay are powerful yet chiseled, with incredible aromatics and a spine of acidity. In addition to the Nec-Otium wines, we will enjoy a side-by-side of Ronco del Gnemiz 2021 Friulano “Buri Bellaria” and one of Jacopo’s other favorite Friulano producers of the moment, Ronc Platát. We will finish with Rosso "Dott Palazzolo" — an exceptional red from Ronco del Gnemiz from vines reaching 80 to 100 years old. This night will be an exceptional dive into the greatest wines of Friuli, Italy’s most undiscovered region, and undoubtedly the greatest region of Italy for white wines: Friuli Colli Orientali.
