With roots in the restaurant business in Friuli, Alexis Paraschos's family purchased vines in Collio in the 1990s and set out making wine from local white varieties, using traditional methods. Today, like his predecessors Gravner and Radikon, Alexis remains committed to preserving the health of his soil while taking a minimal intervention, yet meticulous, approach to vinification.

Organic since 2003, no chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides are used in the vines. In the cellar, carefully harvested and selected grapes are destalked, lightly crushed and placed in open top vessels for a prolonged fermentation where they draw preserving natural antioxidants from their skins.

Beautifully crafted and singular, Paraschos’s offerings are eloquent representations of the new vanguard of winemakers in Collio.
