Lison | Local Wine Appellation From Metropolitan City of Venice, Italy | TasteAtlas

Lison

Lison is an Italian appellation designated for the production of white wines from Friulano (also known as Tocai Friulano or Tai) variety. It is the only DOCG appellation in Italy that expands through several regions—Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia—though the main production areas are located in Venice.


These wines are typically straw yellow with fruity and floral aromas reminiscent of white fruit, linden, and chamomile, while sometimes it may also have a subtle almond aftertaste. Lison wines pair well with a variety of dishes, and they work exceptionally well with seafood, poultry, or pasta dishes.
