Villa Job is a small and brilliant winemaking business of only 6.5 hectares of property, carried forward with passion and devotion by Alessandro Job and his wife Lavinia who in a short time have given a fermentative turn to their lives by taking on the role of winemakers in Friuli, from a management engineer in Milan as he was, to a marketing manager she. Respectively 35 and 34 years on their shoulders and a future in the making focused on the production of emotional, personal and free labels, like their thoughts and ideas, not exclusively linked to the mere economic and commercial factor. The vineyards inherited from Alessandro's grandfather were conceived with a systemic and circular thinking perspective that seeks to limit every type of waste to the bare minimum and to support the natural course of life of the plant and the must. The vineyards of the Villa Job winery are located in the micro-zone - too often forgotten - of Friuli Grave on the Pozzuolo del Friuli plateau, at 90 meters above sea level, surrounded by a forest and the Cormor river on complex terrains rich in sand, clay, sandstone and marl. A concentration of biodiversity and pulsating nature! In the vineyard, the principles of certified organic agriculture are embraced combined with biodynamic practices such as green manure, spontaneous grassing and respect for the energy balance of the plants, giving birth year after year, to lively and vibrant expressions of the land of origin. The work is done manually and for some time Alessandro and Lavinia have started a personal production of rootstocks, thanks to a targeted selection of the best scions, subsequently grafted into the vineyard. Villa Job is the soul of Alessandro and Lavinia and Alessandro and Lavinia are the soul of Villa Job. This deep bond can be found in every glass, as an inescapable authorial signature. It is true that wine is made in the vineyard, but it is equally true that the same sensitivity must also be contemplated in the cellar. Here the grapes are left to ferment spontaneously with the use of only the yeasts naturally present on the skins, in open conical trunks, without temperature control and with cooling carried out with well water. The wine is touched as little as possible, patiently awaited and cared for in the peace of the cellar, in order to release all its personality and richness of drinkability once poured into the glass.
