2021 Villa Job 'Guastafeste'
Place: Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy
Variety: Pinot Grigio
Farming: Organic
Located in Friuli Pozzuolo, Villa job is the estate of vinous power couple Alessandro Job and Lavinia Monrreale. The estate is 6.5 Ha, with soils comprising clay, sandstone and marl. The vines on average are 20 years old and farmed organically. We have been blown away by the freshness and vitality of these wines, kicking ourselves for not discovering them sooner!
Guastafeste is an electric, rule-breaking orange wine made from 100% Pinot Grigio. It ferments spontaneously in open barrels for 15 to 20 days, then soaks up serious character with two months of skin contact. Aged in concrete tanks and seasoned barrels before resting 12 more months in the bottle, it’s raw, unfiltered, and bursting with personality. Bold, vibrant, and totally unapologetic—just the way it should be.
