Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Friuli Grave DOC is in the province of Pordenone, in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region of Italy (top right hand corner, near Slovenia & Austria!). While it isn't far from Venice, it's name derives as follows : Friuli (Julius) and Venezia Guilia (Julian Venetia', not referring to the city of Venice but to the Roman province of Venetia et Histria). So there!!!
Friuli-Venezia Giulia is a different region from the better known Veneto!!!
