IL TASSO

FRIULI-VENEZIA GIULIA

THE FAMILY

Il Tasso is the Badger, the mascot and symbol of Fabio Coser’s Ronco dei Tassi. Fabio selected the badger to represent his fledgling winery 25 years ago to remind himself, his family and his customers that before people had touched his land a rich ecosystem existed, balanced and tuned to the rhythms of the natural world. We asked Fabio to bottle four wines that would represent both great value and the character of the region. He suggested Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Nero and Merlot, varieties that have been grown in Friuli for over a century. Great Italian wine at a value price.
