Radikon - Friuli Cult Wine & Pioneering Icon
In this episode of the Vint Podcast, hosts Billy Galanko and Brady Weller sit down with Saša Radikon, the current head of Radikon Wines and the son of the famed winemaker Stanko Radikon. The Radikon family, based in the Friuli Colli Orientali region, is celebrated for their pioneering work in the revival of traditional winemaking techniques, particularly their dedication to producing skin-contact wines, often referred to as orange wines. Saša shares insights into his family’s winemaking history, the unique terroir of the Oslavia region, and the challenges and innovations that have shaped Radikon Wines over the years. The conversation also delves into the evolution of the wine industry, the impact of climate change on viticulture, and Saša’s thoughts on the future of Radikon Wines, including exciting new projects in Slovenia.
