Before 30, Ilaria Felluga Carries a 6-Generation Wine Legacy in Friuli, Italy

At just 30, Ilaria Felluga is leading not one—but two—of Friuli’s most respected wineries: Marco Felluga and Russiz Superiore. After the sudden loss of her father and grandfather, she stepped into a legacy shaped by six generations of winemakers.
In this episode of The Wine Centric Show, Ilaria shares how she’s carrying forward the family tradition, while championing Collio—Italy’s third officially recognized wine consortium after Chianti and Barolo. Despite its rich terroir and heritage, Collio remains one of the most underrated regions in Italian wine.
We talk about:
- What makes Friuli and Collio unique in Italian winemaking
- The Adriatic Sea’s influence on the region’s microclimate
- Why more people should be drinking wines from Friuli
- The cultural connection between food, family, and wine
- The pressure (and privilege) of inheriting a multigenerational legacy
- Leading two wineries as a young female in Italian wine
Whether you're a wine lover, storyteller, or legacy-builder, this is a conversation not to miss.
