Radikon

The Radikon family produces one of the most unusual wines we know. Friuli Venezia Giulia is usually known a a fairly traditional region, but the little town of Oslavia, next to the Slovenian Border, has produced some incredible winemakers.

Geographically, Oslavia sits in a very interesting land. The Alps block the cold winds, and the sea is just half a marathon away.

The Radikons are what we call purists. It is not sure they want the big public to like their wines. We like to think that they learned to love what their land gives them. To drink Radikon is a very unique experience. We love it as it is a complex way of travelling to another dimension. The producers themselves are the first to admit that either you love their wine, or you don’t. Indifference is not an option. That’s why the Radikons are followed by devoted fanatics just like us around the world.  That’s why it is not easy to get hold of their wines.

One of In Vino Sitis truest natural winemaker, Radikons haven't used chemical treatments since 1995, and no sulphites since 2002. 

Radikon is a legendary natural wine producer from Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy. Founded by Stanko Radikon, the estate became a beacon for skin-contact winemaking, long maceration, and no-compromise natural viticulture.

Today, Stanko’s son Saša Radikon leads the estate with the same radical, meticulous spirit—crafting wines that defy convention and express deep sense of place. Whites like Ribolla Gialla and Reds like Merlot and Pignoli undergo long skin maceration, often in large old oak barrels, with no filtering or added sulfites.

These are bold, golden-orange, structured wines made for thoughtful drinking and food pairing—icons of the natural wine world. As said, orange wines references.
