About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes grow in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, in soils of marl and sandstone with a high concentration of marine shell remains, which contribute subtle mineral notes.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand, undergo a short cold maceration, and are then fermented.

Ageing

The wine matures for nine months in stainless-steel tanks.

Tasting profile

Balanced, with subtle mineral notes.
