Sturm

The winery is located in the municipality of Cormòns, in the village of Zegla, in the heart of the Collio region—a land renowned for producing Friuli’s finest white wines. It is here that the Sturm family has been passionately tending its vineyards for four generations. Our ancestors arrived here from Austria in the 19th century and decided that this land, with its marl and sandstone (ponca) soils, was the ideal place to put down roots.

The winery’s philosophy is consistently focused on the pursuit of elegance, purity, freshness, and varietal character, with the goal of offering wines with a distinct personality that reflect the authenticity of the territory.

Our production highlights the region’s great native and international grape varieties: from fresh, crisp whites such as Friulano, Ribolla Gialla, Malvasia, Chardonnay, Sauvignon, and Pinot Grigio, to expressive, characterful reds such as Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, and Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso. The winery’s name, Sturm, means “storm”: a dynamic element that evokes the movement of the wind and the mineral strength of the soil, reflected in the identity and character of our wines.

In addition to winemaking, the winery produces a small amount of honey from its own apiaries in Cormòns and welcomes visitors in the spirit of local hospitality, offering personalized services and an opportunity to explore the winery and its traditions.
