The area was always marginal land with varying dominance by Rome, Byzantium, Venice and the Habsburg Empire. 181 BC the Romans founded the colony Aquilieia and brought their wine culture. They found, however, already one of the Celts before him justified Viticulture and developed further, many of which archaeological finds testify. Julius Caesar (100-44 BC), then extended the rule to him is also the name of Venezia (Giulia) back. In 53 BC, he founded the city of Forum Julii (Julius the marketplace) (now Cividale), from which it emerged over time Friuli. The Greek writer Strabo (63 BC to 28 AD) reports that the fertile plain created by the city of Aquileia wine in abundance, so that the neighboring peoples (Karnier, Japyder, Pannonian and Illyrian) came from the shop.
